The overview shows OpenWrt's br-lan

The overview hides Docker and other virtual interfaces, and the br- prefix in that rule also hid OpenWrt's LAN bridge br-lan. On a bypass router the LAN IPv4 and the public IPv6 both live on br-lan, so the overview showed no addresses at all. Only Docker network bridges (br- plus 12 hex digits) are hidden now, and br-lan and br-wan are listed. DDNS and STUN could always pick br-lan when reading addresses from an interface.

The system time zone is used on OpenWrt

OpenWrt has neither /etc/localtime nor /usr/share/zoneinfo, and procd does not pass TZ to services, so Gately always ran in UTC: log and notification times were hours off, and zones such as Asia/Shanghai were rejected as invalid in Settings. The time zone database is now built in, so every zone can be saved in Settings. When no zone is set, Gately uses the one configured for the system (zonename in /etc/config/system, or /etc/TZ when that is missing), matching what LuCI shows.

Upgrade notes

• OpenWrt packages: install the new .apk or .ipk over the old one, or check for updates in Settings.
• zoneinfo-* packages you installed to fix the time can stay or be removed.
• After changing the system time zone in LuCI, restart Gately for it to take effect. A zone set in Gately's Settings takes priority over the system zone.
