What's New on the TRAKKER Antares Terminals

With version 8.01.08, the TRAKKER Antares family of terminals:

UDPPLUS & TCP/IP:
A flaw in the code that recovers from 802.11 0x353 errors
could cause the terminal to enter a deadlock state that would
prevent any further communications until one entered the Menu
Subsystem.

File System:
Reading or writing zero bytes would result in an error.  This
was rarely seen as a result of using Avalanche to receive
upgrades.


With version 8.01.06, the TRAKKER Antares family of terminals:

Serial: Fix bug on 248x where serial comm is 
disabled after input from serial device.

Display: Correct the ReadDisplayBuf procedure to not use so
much stack space (the entire display buffer was being
copied to the stack).  This change not only speeds up the
procedure but solves stack overflow issues with any
application that uses this procedure with insufficient stack
space.


With version 8.01.05, the TRAKKER Antares family of terminals:

TCP/IP and UDPPLUS:
When IP routing is required, use the MAC address of the default
router to route all application frames without ever performing
a local ARP for the remote IP.

When a frame is received for a remote IP, update the ARP
cache for both the remote IP and the router used to communicate
to that remote IP.

UDPPLUS:
If the 802.11 radio driver should ever report error 0x353,
momentarily suspend and resume to recover from this otherwise
fatal error condition.


With version 8.01.02, the TRAKKER Antares family of terminals:

ROM-DOS.IMG has been patched to work with this latest release of
Antares firmware.  Specifically the ROM DOS stack had to be
relocated to avoid conflict with the operating system.


Otherwise, all functions of Antares 8.01.01 are carried forward.
