“The following anchors were deployed last year in Africa, I didn't see this on your map: gh-acc-as30997.anchors.atlas.ripe.net ng-los-as37495.anchors.atlas.ripe.net rw-kgl-as328014.anchors.atlas.ripe.net ug-kla-as37386.anchors.atlas.ripe.net”

“Very bad quality of Verbatim stick & probe firmware! Too many filesystem crash. And now one of two probe - stick is read only... i use my personal flash disk... Too bad for the equipment that I gave free shelter...”
Hi Vlad, We understand your frustration and we've been working hard to overcome the issues with RIPE Atlas probe USB sticks. As mentioned in the article, we recently launched a new firmware update that seems to have gone some way towards resolving the issue (more on this here: https://labs.ripe.net/Members/kistel/ripe-atlas-countering-hardware-issues-with-better-firmware).

Thanks! We spotted that just now and it's been changed from 2017 to 2021 as you pointed out.
