Antivirus scanner how to manage after upgrading to 6.6.1

Hi,

Does anyone know what the next problem is?
After upgrading to Firmware 6.6.1 I can't manage the Antivirus scanner.
Before upgrading I could change the frequences of updating the Antivirus scanner.

Does anyone have an idea?

Please be kind and share with me.
Remarks: the antivirus program is still runnig on background and the led on the main screen (Admin Page) is green!

  • The way to use the built in anti vrus is for me a bit blury and hard to understand too!

    For me I turned it on, then the unit downloaded the app, then it updated the virus files and then it went green and a shield appeared on the unit.

      For right now the only controls are "on" and "off".  

       

      I think that's a huge problem, hopefully there will be more options soon.
