While there is much to tell you about the new site, there is one feature that will not be there. </font></p>

<p style="margin:0px;font-stretch:normal;line-height:normal"><font face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif">The new site will not have the capability to download configs to your node. This feature has long outlived its usefulness and there are better options these days. </font></p>
<p style="margin:0px;font-stretch:normal;line-height:normal;min-height:14px"><font face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif"><br></font></p>
<p style="margin:0px;font-stretch:normal;line-height:normal"><font face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif">One option to consider is upgrading your node. Current nodes have a menu system providing capabilities beyond the old config download. Of course there are the built in editors such as nano and vi. Another option is to use a tool like WinSCP. </font></p>

<p style="margin:0px;font-stretch:normal;line-height:normal"><font face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif">It is important to note that only the ability to configure your node from the website will be lost. Your node will still work normally after the new site rollout, and other methods of configuration are not affected.</font></p>
