This is the v0.17.1.1 minor point release of the Monero software. This is a highly recommended release that fixes an issue with nodes getting stuck at block 2210720.
Some highlights of this minor release are:
- Fix sync past block 2210720
- Bump default number of connections from 8 to 12
- Wait for propagation timeout before marking tx as failed
- Allow setting start block on export with monero-blockchain-export
- Minor bug fixes

# Download
The new binaries can be downloaded from the [Downloads page]({{ site.baseurl }}/downloads/#cli) or from the direct links below.
A GPG-signed list of the hashes is at [https://getmonero.org/downloads/hashes.txt]({{ site.baseurl_root }}/downloads/hashes.txt) and should be treated as canonical, with the signature checked against the appropriate GPG key in the source code (in /utils/gpg_keys). To ensure that the files you download are those originally posted by the maintainers, you should both check that the hashes of your files match those on the signed list, and that the signature on the list is valid.
Two guides are available to guide you through the verification process: [Verify binaries on Windows (beginner)]({{ site.baseurl }}/resources/user-guides/verification-windows-beginner.html) and [Verify binaries on Linux, Mac, or Windows command line (advanced)]({{ site.baseurl }}/resources/user-guides/verification-allos-advanced.html).
