**Networker** · 11. September 2024

Habe gerade auf 8.5.1 aktualisiert. Das Dashboard ist nun anpassbar, noch nicht besonders stark, aber gefällt mir.

Der Speedtest ist dafür kaputt (lässt sich nicht mehr anklicken).

Was interessant klingt ist "Added support for Packet Captures on Gateways" - habe aber noch nicht entdeckt, wie genau das laufen soll.
