Is anyone getting automatic service updates. Mine has 6 time outs and then says updates not available.

 

I’m wondering if they’ve stopped doing them, or if me changing the Fritz Box password is what stopped it. Though it was around Christmas time changed password, and end of March is when stopped getting updates.

 

I’m was with 2degrees before merger.

 

Under system events, it has this "

 

28.03.24 11:10:31 No automatic configuration or updates by the service provider possible for this device: Timeout. [6 messages since 27.03.24 03:51:27]"

 

 

 

edit Fritz Box 7560

Yep. I’m on 7.30 the latest one.  Looks like September 2023 is when it came out, so hasn’t been any for a while.

 

It’s more if something goes wrong can 2degrees still alter configurations so that the box works with them, I.e they probably made changes with the network updates.

ISPs changing config is a different protocol - TR069

My 7530 auto updated on 12/4 to Ver 7.58, but different model to yours.

 

 

 

edit: Opps sorry, that was for my repeater. There are no records before 1 April.

Interesting that Sep 2023 is also the date of this news. But nothing official has been announced yet as far as I know.

Fritzbox manufacturer AVM is apparently to be sold (tellerreport.com)

Edit: I dont believe the updates come from your ISP either. I am using Fritzboxes as my BYO routers on an ISP that has never sold them. I get the updates just fine, pre Sep 2023.

The updates use to be sent from 2degrees, I can’t remember exactly but think about once every 6 hours it had something like settings have been received from your ISP

 

It’s looking like that automated process has now stopped. 
There’s an update option in Fritz settings so probably don’t need to use links that mentalinc provided. Probably more needed if unable to get Fritz online and needs new firmware.

 

I was just wondering if they’d changed the automated sending of settings, which looks like they have. Happy with way everything is working. Think with new connections now  they no longer provide the Fritz Box.

They are probably still going to be sent by your ISP when they become available, there just have not been updates.
