VMB5000r6 Firmware and Arlo video door bell 2nd Gen updates not happening

[renits17]

Hi

I would have posted this in the firmware release table but that is closed.

I have a VMB5000r6 and it is on firmware 1.24.1.0_1614_3a032bd and i see by your table that the new firmware has been released on the 10th Sep version

Arlo SmartHub

VMB5000

1.25.0.1_1762_0201bb2

September 10, 2024

but even if i look for updates manually it shows the current one as correct.

How do i get this new version and what are the release notes/fixes for this product ??

Also

The Arlo doorbell 2nd Gen version AVD4001Aer1.3 which is currently on firmware version 1.4.3_780_373916c

shows that this is current but a new firmware was released on the 10th Sep also

Arlo Video Doorbell 2nd Gen

AVD3001 / AVD4001

1.5.0_1059_eb10395

September 10, 2024

Arlo uses a slow-roll release process, so it can take a long time for the firmware update to reach you.   If you are in Europe, then Verisure is also involved in the release process (since Arlo has a partnershipt with them).

They never post release notes, or give details on the fixes.  No idea why, it would be very helpful if they did.
