I was able to successfully complete an over-the-air update on my Helltec mesh pocket. But its SLOW. 1.5KiB/s slow. I wonder if that can be safely increased in the future some.

I went from fw 2.7.15 to fw 2.7.18

Edit: Here’s a YouTube video showing it in action. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DY_hC-qQ02E

He got a 3.3x increase over mine. I got 1.5KiB/s while he was getting like 4.9KiB/s

I’m not sure if it’s because he was updating a different device, or because he might have had a newer app version, because I believe my app version was 2.7.11, where his was 2.7.12.

Edit 2: It must be because of a different device. I just did another update on my node with the 2.7.12 app version and still only got 1.5 KiB/s

    Can one node independently change its coding rate while others haven’t and the error correction benefit take effect? Do all nodes need to have the same setting?

      The coating rate can be independent. The things that need to be the same are the frequency, the bandwidth, and the spreading factor, as these determine what the traffic looks like. Whereas the coating rate just determines how much error correction is put onto it.
