Firmware 2.2.26:
I just found out that my tablo device got latest firmware 2.2.26. There seems to be a few issues with the device losing IP. Switched from DHCP to fix IP (through ASUS router); seems to "temporarily fix the problem.
However, I also discovered that the place to manually check/update a latest firmware (mentioned as under Settings->About) can no longer be found. Is this a new method of operation (modus operandi)? I am using Chrome from Win 10 PC.
As mentioned, it will let you know, you never actually initiated the check - it was ready and informed you
I waited until recently to update my Dual Lite (Aug '19). I have not interest in commercial skip and things were working just fine as is. Any ways, the difference from 2.2.24 > 2.2.26 has no impact with it loosing it’s DHCP lease, nor any noticeable issues. (so technical, but they aren’t issues)
If DHCP is true dynamic or a reserved lease, to the device it makes no difference, unless maybe you specify a longer than default time. So it’s doubtful that actually fixed anything.
