Brivo Smart Home Firmware Release 1.7.20

April 22, 2024

This release fixes a problem where the cell connection was using much more data than previous builds. This caused some gateways to be taken offline due to exceeding the limits set by our cell service providers.

Details

-Cell radio connections can become stale if the gateway is connected for a long time. Now we restart the cell radio if the connection has become stale and stops communications with the portal.
