GeoAstra NTRIP Caster V2.0 — Product Release Announcement

We’re excited to announce the release of GeoAstra NTRIP Caster V2.0 on Nov 8, 2025, a major upgrade that delivers faster performance, smarter tools, and a more powerful GNSS workflow for professionals worldwide.

GeoAstra V2.0 has already been fully deployed and now seamlessly replaces our previous GeoAstra NTRIP Caster V1.0.

All user accounts, mountpoints, and settings were automatically migrated — no action is required from you. Everything continues to work exactly as before, just with dramatically better features and reliability.
