Your experience with Firmware 2.2.1.210 released as of 10/3/18
The other long thread on the new firmware is useless and has become a tech support thread. Please only post your experience after upgrading to the new firmware, good or bad. I'd like to see everyone'...
Update went smoothly. However my two Carrier Infinity Touch thermostats lost connection and I could not get them to connect manually no matter what I tried. Every other device had no problem. I rolled back to 2.1.4.16 firmware, and they connected within minutes. They identify themselves as "Microchip Technology Inc.". Please fix this incompatability. I have a router and two satellites. When I check for networks to connect to it shows all three devices as separate networks. Three networks with the same SSID. I don't see this on any other clients.
The roll back procedure needs some work. When trying it with the cable modem connected the firmware kept going back to the latest version even after manually updating to the old firmware. I don't know if it was really, but the router kept insisting that is was on the latest 2.2.1.210 firmware. Once I disconnected the cable modem I was able to update everything back to 2.1.4.16.
