I have never updated my Apex since after initial implementation because of this very concern. I do have it hardwired so should be OK. But it is working fine now, with internet access, etc, and I have a lot of programming that I did on the various outlets. So would hate to mess up a good thing...

This is sort of my philosophy with computers as well. After the initial firmware updates, I leave them alone.

But maybe I am missing something. Are there some useful features that I should be taking advantage of? I am running version 4.12_5A12 right now. Or should I LITFA?
