http://codelaide.com/blog we <3 macs, too Sat, 24 Oct 2009 17:41:25 +0000 http://backend.userland.com/rss092 en Due to a problem with our storage system yesterday, some users were accidentally served an old pre-release build instead of the 1.2.6 release version. The 1.2.7 release is thus just a re-packaging of yesterday's update, in order to make sure that everyone got indeed the correct version. Our apologies for the ... http://codelaide.com/blog/2009/10/24/quick-follow-up-1-2-7/ Most importantly, Lighthouse 1.2.6 is entirely compatible with Snow Leopard. In fact, the previous version has already been supported by Snow Leopard, but 1.2.6 contains a couple of fixes for Snow Leopard-related issues that could have cropped up in the future. Additionally, 1.2.6 introduces a bunch of work-arounds for UPnP-routers that ... http://codelaide.com/blog/2009/10/23/lighthouse-1-2-6/ MacApper has posted a nice and thorough review of Lighthouse. Check it out! http://codelaide.com/blog/2008/08/12/lighthouse-reviewed-by-macapper/ Lighthouse is going international in version 1.2.5: It is now fully localizable. As a start, 1.2.5 contains a French and a German localization (many many thanks to Ronald Leroux for providing an excellent French localization). Additionally, the help book (which is fully translated in the localizations as well!) has been updated ... http://codelaide.com/blog/2008/06/27/lighthouse-125-going-international/ Lighthouse 1.2.4 is a maintenance release that fixes a few minor issues reported by our users.

This ... http://codelaide.com/blog/2008/04/01/lighthouse-124-maintenance-fix/ The latest Lighthouse release with the funky version number 1.2.3 brings a few Leopard-specific fixes and enhancements. It's nothing major, but contains some important fixes related to Leopard as well as some minor bugfixes. Most importantly, 1.2.3 fixes an issue with Leopard 10.5.1 where the trial period would unintentionally get cut ... http://codelaide.com/blog/2007/12/02/lighthouse-123-minor-leopard-improvements/ Since a few people have asked this over last couple of days: Yes, the current version of Lighthouse has been well-tested on Leopard and is Leopard-compatible. That's the reason why we did not release an update specifically addressing Leopard, since Lighthouse is already compatible with it. Just make sure that you ... http://codelaide.com/blog/2007/11/18/lighthouse-is-leopard-ready/ Lighthouse 1.2.2 finally delivers a workaround for the stability problems introduced by the 7.2.1 firmware upgrade for the 802.11n Apple Airport Extreme base station. After quite a lot of research, we've found out that forwarding UDP ports always (and some other NAT/PMP requests sometimes under special circumstances) crashes the NAT/PMP server ... http://codelaide.com/blog/2007/09/23/lighthouse-122/ We're back from our vacation and have started investigating the issue that prevents Lighthouse from working on n-enabled Airport Extreme base stations after the recent 7.2.1 firmware upgrade. So far, we've installed the firmware on our own test router, but have also collected some diagnostic information from a few users ... http://codelaide.com/blog/2007/09/21/news-on-the-721-airport-extreme-issue/ Several users have reported that the Airport Extreme firmware upgrade (7.2.1) released today breaks Lighthouse's NAT/PMP support so that it can't associate with the router anymore or start any profiles. Unfortunately, this is extremely bad timing since we're currently on a vacation until mid-September, away from our test routers. Therefore, we ... http://codelaide.com/blog/2007/08/30/please-dont-upgrade-your-airport-extreme-to-721/
