Arlo Ultra Not Receiving Firmware Update

[abujesus]

Hello,

For some reason my Arlo Ultra is not receiving the latest firmware update 1.070.53.1_62_40917e7. I’m stuck on 1.070.52.1_35_1bdb65f. Is there a way to force an update?

Latest firmware is released in phases for each model, some users may not see the latest available firmware for their devices on the release date mentioned.

My personal experience is that updates introduce more bugs than they resolve. It's a fact: recent Pro/Pro2 cloud fiasco requiring users to remove and re-add cameras, local storage fiasco which stopped me from using the cameras what they were intended for, not to mention the Pro 5 fiasco etc. etc.  

This product is good for hobbyists and enthusiasts that like to have their lives filled with endless problems, resets, testing etc., though I wonder if any of them would have that kind of patience to deal with the constant issues. 

No other product in my household has ever needed so many resets, re-adds to the account, emails with support from Arlo. It's shocking and abysmal what this company does, and every time there's a new firmware update, I'm anxious that things will get broken again.

So, if you know how to *stop* your Arlo products from receiving firmware updates, please let me know.
