My Arlo base station has been flashing alternate blue and amber lights for a couple of days now. I understand this to mean a firmware update is in progress, however it has been over 2 days. All cameras seem to be working and capturing like normal, but wondering if I need to do a reboot? I am hesitant as it clearly states NOT to turn the unit off during a firmware update, but it has been 2 days now. Anyone else experienced this recently? Also my system is a mix of Arlo Pro3 and Essential Outdoor Cameras. Thanks.

If it lasts more than, say, 15 minutes, it's generally safe to power cycle it to get back to normal. There's always a chance things can go wrong but by this time whatever was happening has already failed.
