STOP IT ALREADY WITH THE UPDATES! I have 5 systems and 19 devices. Constant updates make me hate this system. If you feel like you keep needing to fix what you messed up in the last software build then at least do it automatically at like 3am or something. It's annoying!

Have you seen their list of things to come this year. I would expect an update every month practically.

You can turn off auto updates in settings.

And I would out of precaution - reserve all your IP addresses in your router (that solves about 90% of update issues).

Glad you asked. This update, 9.2 added automatic updates. Just go into settings with your mobile controller and you can tell your system to update automatically from now on!

I couldn't agree more. There seems to one every week. Every time I update it fails at least once Updates do NOT take a 2-3 minutes. STOP THE UPDATES!

Why would the probability of a mains failure be any lower if you initiated the update manually?
