It can auto-upgrade, if you have Auto Firmware Upgrade, ITSP Provisioning, OBiTalk Provisioning, or OBiTALK Service enabled. Even with those disabled, it will auto-upgrade if you deal **5 (you can disable this with the DigitMap if you wish.)
Since it has not auto-upgraded by this point, you
most likely have the above set already.

Google got its panties in a bunch about Obihai having access to thousands of OBi users' Google passwords via OBiTALK, so told Obihai they had to start using OAuth2. If you have pre-OAuth2 firmware, there's no risk to using it, as you
can't configure it with OBiTALK any more.

Password authentication wasn't banned at all. I've been using it since I bought my first 110 in 2011 and continue to use it today. There's nothing wrong with password authentication -
as long as your password isn't stored in the cloud. Remember that 99.99% of consumer or SoHo-grade SIP devices use password authentication. If you have a reason why a Google Voice password stored on my device is less secure than a SIP password stored on my device, let's hear it.

The following quote from one of the other threads seems like a pretty legitimate reason:
