2024-09-09: RNS β 0.7.7
This release adds support for automatic encryption key ratcheting for all packets, not just those sent over Reticulum links. In practical terms, this adds forward secrecy to packets sent with the raw Packet
API.
In this release, the ratchets feature must be enabled on a per-destination basis by calling the enable_ratchets
method on the relevant destination. In a future release, ratchets may become the default option, but for backwards-compatibility, it is currently optional. For more information, read the API documentation.
Please note! Versions of RNS prior to 0.7.7
will not be able to pass announces for destinations with ratchets enabled! If you use applications that can use ratchets (for example, LXMF version 0.5.0
and up), it is important that you update all transport instances on your network to 0.7.7
.
Thanks to @deavmi, @faragher, @jacobeva, @jeremy and @jeremybox for contributing to this release!

2022-01-28: RNS β 0.3.2
This maintenance release adds support for using a much wider range of devices as RNode LoRa interfaces with Reticulum, and also contains a few bugfixes and improvements.
Important! From this release, RNodes used with Reticulum must have at least firmware version 1.26 installed, due to the new multiplatform RNode support.
Improvements
- Added full support for RNodes based on ESP32 and ATmega2560 boards
- Fixed a bug in TCP interfaces on macOS
- Updated documentation and manual
2022-01-26: RNS β 0.3.1
This is a small maintenance and update release of Reticulum, including a few improvements. It also adds support for using ESP32-based T-Beam devices.
Improvements:
- Added support for using T-Beam devices using the RNodeInterface
- Improved AutoInterface on Android
- Improved platform handling
- Improved malformed packet handling
2021-12-11: RNS β 0.3.0
This is a major release of Reticulum, including a range of stability and performance improvements, along with important new features, expanding the connectivity of Reticulum.
An important improvement in this release is the addition of the AutoInterface, that will now be configured as the default interface on new installs. This interface automatically meshes with other Reticulum peers over any available system network devices, and doesn't require any existing IP infrastructure like a DHCP server or a router. For more information, consult the relevant section of the manual.
Improvements
- Added new AutoInterface as default interface for new installs
- Serial port interfaces now automatically attempt to reconnect devices that are unplugged and replugged
- Added support for KISS over TCP in the TCPClientInterface
- Added support for running Reticulum as a systemd service
- Initial support for the Android operating system
- Added documentation for installing Reticulum on Android in Termux
- Improved documentation and manual
- Better path request handling for shared instances
- Better shutdown handling on external interrupts
- Many small stability and reliability improvements
- Fine-tuned various timing parameters for different link types
2021-10-15: RNS β 0.2.9
This beta release adds the fundamentals of RSSI and SNR functionality. It also implements timing improvements, allowing Reticulum to function on even lower bitrate physical links.
Improvements
- Added RSSI and SNR reporting on supported interfaces
- Added RSSI and SNR to rnprobe utility
- Added RSSI and SNR to Echo example
- Support for physical layer throughput down to 500 bits per second.
- Improved callback handling
2021-10-10: RNS β 0.2.8
This beta release brings a single, but important improvement. Paths are now updated much more fluidly for peers moving around the network.
Since updates were made to how tunnels and path table entries are represented in this release, it is recommended to delete the following files on Transport Nodes:
~/.reticulum/storage/destination_table ~/.reticulum/storage/packet_hashlist ~/.reticulum/storage/tunnels ~/.reticulum/storage/cache/*
The files will be recreated when Reticulum is started.
Improvements
- Improved path updates for peers moving around the network
2021-10-08: RNS β 0.2.7

- Improved path restoration on tunnels
- Added log rotation
Fixed bugs
- Fixed incorrect interface detachment on TCP client interfaces
2021-09-25: RNS β 0.2.6
This beta release brings a range of improvements and a few bugfixes.
Improvements
- Added the "rnsd" utility for running Reticulum as a service
- Added the "rnstatus" utility for viewing interface status
- Added the "rnpath" utility for path lookups
- Added the "rnprobe" utility for testing connectivity
- Documentation has been improved and expanded
- Improved shutdown handling for shared instances
- Improved default configuration
- Improved recovery of TCP interfaces over unreliable links
Fixed bugs
- Fixed a bug in reverse table culling
- Fixed a regression in TCP interface client spawner
2021-09-18: RNS β 0.2.5
This beta release brings a range of improvements and bugfixes.
Improvements
- Added endpoint tunneling for path restoration over intermittent or roving link layer connections.
- Added ability for TCP client interfaces to automatically reconnect if TCP socket drops.
- Improved link teardown handling.
- Improved interface error handling on non-recoverable / hardware errors.
Fixed bugs
- Fixed a bug that could cause path table entries to be culled two times in rare cases.
- Fixed a bug that could lead to the "outgoing" directive of interface configuration entries not being parsed correctly.
2021-09-11: RNS β 0.2.4
This beta release brings a range of improvements and bugfixes.
Improvements
- Increased link MDU from 415 to 431 bytes by optimising transfer of Fernet tokens.
- All data lengths are now calculated dynamically from Reticulums base MTU, laying the groundwork for dynamic MTU interoperability.
- Disabled option to allow unencrypted links.
- Improved documentation.
- Improved request timeouts and handling.
- Improved link establishment.
- Improved resource transfer timing.
Fixed bugs
- Fixed a race condition in inbound proof handling.
- Fixed sequencing errors caused by duplicate HMU/request packets not being filtered.
2021-08-29: RNS β 0.2.3
This beta release brings a range of improvements and bugfixes.
Improvements
- Improved resource handling.
- Improved timeout calculation for packets, links, resources and requests.
- Improved announce handling for shared instances.
- Improved default configuration template.
- Added example "Speedtest".
Fixed bugs
- Fixed an issue that caused request timeout even though response had occurred.
- Fixed an issue that caused identity files to be written incorrectly.
- Fixed resource sequencing errors not being handled gracefully.
2021-08-21: RNS β 0.2.2
This beta release brings several new features to Reticulum along with two bugfixes.
IMPORTANT! This version breaks wire-format compatibility with all previous versions of Reticulum. You must update all of your nodes at the same time.
New features
- Link initiators can now identify to the remote peer over the link, once it has been set up. This can be used for authentication, amongst other things.
- Requests and responses of arbitrary sizes can now be carried out over links.
- UDP and TCP interfaces can now be bound to network device names (eth0, wlan0, etc.) instead of manually specifying listen IPs.
Fixed bugs
- Fixed a race condition in outbound transport packet filtering.
- Fixed an issue where local UDP broadcast echoes could get processed as inbound packets.
2021-05-20: RNS β 0.2.1
This beta release sees significant improvements to bandwidth utilization and efficiency, while improving security by dropping RSA and moving completely to Curve25519.
- All asymmetric cryptography migrated to X25519/Ed25519. This has greatly improved efficiency and reduced protocol overhead significantly.
- Work has continued on the documentation, and the "Understanding Reticulum" chapters have been improved significantly in this release.
- Class methods dealing with setting callbacks have been renamed to be more intuitive.
As a few examples of the improved efficiency, a complete link establishment now only costs 240 bytes, down from 409 in the previous RSA version. An announce takes up 151 bytes vs 323.
2021-05-18: RNS β 0.2.0
This is the first beta release of RNS. This release also marks the publication of the Reticulum documentation, manual, and API documentation. All core features of Reticulum are now implemented, functional and ready to use in external programs. The wire-format and API will only change if there is a very good reason, though internals are still likely to be altered and optimised, and features are likely to be added.
