How to turn Firmware auto update off?

Post by spacesimon »

Anyone know how to disable this new "feature" ?
I do keep on top of the updates but a specified time is a PITA.
Clients could be writing files through the night or just be busy and this creates disruption to all users.

Anyone worked it out?

you should look into the control panel -> system -> firmware -> auto update

that's simple. i did it already after reinitialize.

there is an option to disable the new default for auto firmware update.

however thkfully the new firmware notification is separate. that one i left enabled which i recommend.

There are tick boxes for "latest" or recommended I know that.

I'm expecting a "disable" ?

Are the 2 tick boxes when unticked basically "off" ?

Yes. If neither "latest" nor "recommended" are checked, then you get nothing.
