fallback support? #239

Closed bam80 closed 1 year ago

bam80 commented 1 year ago

Hi, does the upgrader provide fallback with automatic recovering to previous firmware if the upgrade didn't succeed for some reason?

If the previous upgrade didn't succeed, then the device likely wouldn't be online, precluding any connection from OpenWISP. You should probably look into a dual bank flash solution if you want resilience against failed upgrades.

@mips171 is right, there's not much we can do on the OpenWISP side.
