Camera hangs and don´t accept reset!

I have two battery driven Nedis cameras WiFICBO10WT, they have always functioned well – except that they refuse to function with memory cards, no matter what speeds or make of SDHC-cards I try – until yesterday.

WiFICBO10WT

Yesterday there was a suggested firmware-upgrade, when I checked the pics from the cameras. It worked well with the first camera. But hung the second. Both cameras had 80% battery left according to the indicator before the upgrade. I followed the instructions and waited “several minutes” after initiating the upgrade. The first camera came back online by itself, the second just hung.. the app said it was “offline”.

So I initiated a reset – with the camera ON. I pushed the reset-button on the back for about 10 seconds, while the WiFi lamp was on with a steady light (indicating no Wifi-connection available). The lamp did not change it was still ON with a steady light (however the router was a few meters away with free sight). Then followed the instructions and pushed the ON/OFF button of the camera for about 5 seconds. The camera went OFF. Then I turned it ON again, by pushing the ON/OFF button for about 5 seconds.

It went ON as expected, but still with the WiFi lamp lighting steady… and the app still reporting it as offline.

I have repeated the sequence several times now to no avail, I guess it has crashed?

I will make a report of this to Nedis-support, and recommend other users NOT to do this firmware update, until Nedis have resolved the situation!

Anybody else that have had problems with yesterdays firmware upgrade?
