Remote device Cleric Repeater has advertised your public key. This may indicate a low-entropy key. You may need to regenerate your public keys.

What should I do?

    That can also happen if you change the name of your device. It will still be advertising a key that other radios recognize from earlier, but with the wrong name.

      I’m using the same name all the time….and it’s a unique link, so I don’t think this is the case.

        It sounds like you may actually have a compromised key. There are going to be a fair number of those around, because of the “bug” (really more of an oversight) in the pre-2.6.11 firmware. I had to get new keys on one of my radios too. Just make sure you’re running 2.6.11 or later before you generate new keys.

          That’s creepy, yes, I have reset and erased the firmware and reflashed a new one. But till now, my public channel still quiet…
