Observer EastMesh Firmware v1.15.0-eastmesh-v2026.5.1

MeshCore EastMesh Observer

EastMesh observer-eastmesh firmware for MeshCore boards with secure MQTT uplink and optional local web management, based on MeshCore firmware v1.15.0.

This release renames the EastMesh MQTT observer firmware and release track, aligning release tags and PlatformIO target names with the new Observer naming.

What's Changed

• Renamed the EastMesh MQTT release tag format from repeater-mqtt-eastmesh-v* to observer-eastmesh-v*.
• Renamed *_repeater_mqtt PlatformIO environments and release artifact prefixes to *_repeater_observer.
• Updated EastMesh release, local build, board, web panel, API, and CLI documentation to use Observer naming.

Breaking Changes

• The EastMesh MQTT release tag format and PlatformIO target suffix changed to Observer naming.

Notes

• eastmesh-au remains the recommended MQTT endpoint once mqtt.iata is configured.
• For maximum heap headroom on busy observers, use the web panel for setup and troubleshooting, then disable it with set web off.
• Browsers may still require accepting the self-signed certificate warning on first HTTPS access.
• If upgrading from a build older than observer-eastmesh-v1.3.11, use the web Start OTA button if start ota sends you through an odd redirect.
