title: "Can I update my node's firmware over the mesh?",
content: `No, Meshtastic does not support OTA updates over LoRa. Please visit [Flash Firmware](/docs/getting-started/flashing-firmware/) for update options.`,

{
title: "Which version of firmware should I use?",
content: `Currently, there are two types of Meshtastic firmware releases, "Alpha" and "Beta". Firmware releases are labeled with the version number, commit hash and the type. Installing the latest beta release recommended for most cases. Alpha release are geared towards users interested in testing the new features, fixes or enhancements with the understanding there are additional risks and potential for instability compared to running a beta release.`,

title: "How often should I update firmware?",
content: `Firmware should be kept up to date. While it is not necessary to update whenever a new release comes out it's a good idea to follow the Discord Server and Forums linked in the [Introduction](/docs/introduction/#contributors) where developers may advise the community about important updates. The Meshtastic [firmware releases page](https://github.com/meshtastic/firmware/releases) on Github has a summary of what has changed in each release.`,
