Hi. My 4540r2 does not get the new firmware. I’m stuck with 1.19.0.3_1172_68a8e53. Any tips?

I want to be able to have local recordings available again!

A firmware update shouldn't be needed for local recordings - this hub has supported that for a long time.

 

Where are you located? Not all countries can get all updates at the same time. If that's not the case, the fastest thing to do may be to remove all devices from your account and start fresh, adding the hub back in first.

Hi. I’m located in Sweden and I have had local recording enabled for years. Local recording stopped with the latest Arlo Secure App upgrade and, from another thread, I read that the latest firmware update solves this.

And I forgot to mention, I formatted the sd-card and I van see that there are new recordings made by looking at ”storage status”. Hence, it’s the upgraded app that’s causing this issue but a firmware update in the SmartHub that solves it?

There was an issue with this hub and local recording... Due to firmware update... The 20 was a fix apparently... But my hub won't update. Located in UK. Have reset uninstalled etc.

By the way, is the firmware 1.20.xxx available in Sweden? As I said my basestation shows firmware 1.19.0.3_xxx and also says that is the latest version )no updates available) when I’m hitting the Firmware button.

Thnx a million.
Oh I will. Or by a new system might be an option soon. Sadly many corporates break fantastic products with silly policies.
