Not sure what was changed but it looks like Obihai may be sending it to any unit that is registered on the portal.
That sure appears to be what's happening. I had Auto Firmware Update disabled on two OBi200s and 3.2.1 (Build: 5775EX) got pushed and installed automatically on both of them. What's the point of even having the Auto Firmware Update field if it's just going to be ignored?
I manage OBi devices remotely for family members so I've always used the web portal but I'd love to get off it.

What was the previous firmware?
This firmware seems to have broken my setup. Looks like auto firmware is going to be a no go for me from now on.
If disabling auto firmware doesn't work, looks like I am going to have to take my registration off the portal. too bad! was a really nice feature.

That isn't the latest generic version, this one is: http://fw.obihai.com/OBi202-3-1-1-5794.fw
Release date was 1-20-18.
Something very strange about this firmware. I've repeated this twice.
When installing this firmware on an OBi200 that is still under warranty it installs fine but it reads as 3.2.1 (Build: 5794EX) after installation.
When installing this firmware on an OBi200 that is off warranty it installs fine and reads as expected: 3.1.1 (Build: 5794). However, after installation I get the yellow triangle on my dashboard saying I have an update waiting. By tomorrow, it will have automatically updated to 3.2.1 (Build: 5775EX). Go figure.
Edit: After rebooting the 200 that is off warranty a couple times the firmware automagically changed to also be 3.2.1 (Build: 5794EX) and I no longer have the update triangle on my dashboard. Weird.

disabling all 4 items on the system management -> auto provisioning page then rolling back to 3.2.1 (Build: 5775EX) seems to have me all fixed.
This was pretty scary for multiple reasons!!
While the technical solution was pretty easy, thanks to this thread... there was some trust w/ obihai that has been reduced. At least for me. Pushing a non tested firmware??! To everyone? Regardless of auto firmware enabled or disabled??
Anyhow thank you for posting the previous firmware, getting me fixed up was pretty easy.

To Taoman Indeed, I just checked my daughters 200 and it is running 5794EX as of about two hours ago. I changed the url and downloaded a copy for backup. I currently have a 100 and her 200 that I keep an eye on remotely. Of course, they haven't bothered with the 100 and we don't use GV at all but I'm still a little concerned when they dump one of these out un-announced. I'm also wondering if the changes may have something to do with the buy out and the fact there are already some attempting to hack the 200. It's too bad because the 200/202 are great boxes and Obihai is still insisting the 212 should be available soon.
