Restore lost guide content and broker access references - #89

There was a problem hiding this comment.
I found three accuracy issues that should be corrected before this is merged:
-
The role matrix and details say only dedicated repeaters route traffic, but current room-server firmware can repeat. The official FAQ says this is supported but not recommended, and the official configurator currently exposes the room-server Repeat setting. Dedicated repeaters should be described as the recommended backbone, not the only devices capable of forwarding traffic.
-
The WisMesh Tag is described as pre-flashed for instant use. RAK documents that it ships with Meshtastic, so a MeshCore reader still needs to flash the current MeshCore companion firmware.
-
The antenna warning says every listed companion needs an upgraded antenna, but the T1000-E and WisMesh Tag use internal antennas; RAK also warns that opening the Tag damages the enclosure. The advice should be limited to devices with replaceable antennas.
I also found a few smaller stale purchasing claims (the T-Echo firmware variant, guaranteed duty treatment, and “built with MeshCore in mind” wording for the T-Deck Plus). I’m correcting these in English and French and folding #88 into this branch so the repository has one reviewable PR.

Review follow-up: the accuracy issues I called out above are fixed in The unified PR now restores the bilingual guide content, corrects room-server/client-repeat wording, fixes the WisMesh Tag and sealed-antenna guidance, removes stale purchase claims, restores the broker administrator contacts, and lists Verified on the exact pushed commit:
This is ready for a fresh maintainer review. |
This restores useful community guidance that was trimmed during the site overhaul, keeps the overhaul's safety and verification structure, and folds the MQTT broker reference work from #88 into one reviewable change.

The role and firmware corrections were checked against the current MeshCore FAQ, MeshCore configurator, official MeshCore hardware/flasher page, and RAK WisMesh Tag documentation.
