Arlo Essential Solar Panel

My solar panel stopped charging the camera. It is in full sun. I live in Las Vegas. My other solar charger is fine.

The board's say something about a firmware update, idk how I would update it? Do I take it down and connect it to a computer somehow? I have no idea what that means. Thank you.
