New Event File Auto-upload function (Fleet Tracking accounts only). Automatically upload Event video sub-streams (low-res Quick Play version) to the Cloud.
[*]New Garage hotspot setting (BlackVue Over the Cloud and Fleet Tracking). Prioritize your home or work Wi-Fi connection to save on your mobile hotspot data plan. You can now set any of your registered Wi-Fi hotspots as “Garage” hotspot. The BlackVue will connect in priority to Garage hotspots. Additionally, when your dashcam switches to Parking Mode, it will check for available Garage hotspots to connect to in priority. Finally, while in Parking Mode, it will check every 10 minutes for an available Garage hotspot if not already connected to one.
[*]Now Cloud video file upload will resume in case of interruption (BlackVue Over the Cloud).
[*]Wi-Fi band selection.
– Choose between 5GHz and 2.4GHz (under Firmware settings > Wi-Fi).
– Default : 5GHz (a popup in the BlackVue App should inform you in case 5GHz connection is not supported on your phone).
Hopefully once the DR900 users test this new firmware and shake out the bugs, that garage WiFi functionality will be back-ported to the 750 & 650.
After this update the dashcam's WiFi is still not visible to Android smartphones, unfortunately, however switching band to 2.4 GHz helps. In other words, 5 GHz band in DR900S is virtually only available to iOS users :-(

Right, should say to *most* Android smartphones.This is not the case for me, running a Samsung S8. Works fine here!
Just wondering how many have you tested?Right, should say to *most* Android smartphones.
A few, but none of these was Samsung. Oneplus, Huawei, Xiaomi, LG etc.Just wondering how many have you tested?
Works fine for me too. Samsung Note 8.This is not the case for me, running a Samsung S8. Works fine here!
The exact naming of 'Smart Network' varies from phone to phone and OS to OS, so you will have to go looking for it.
So switching off mobile data IS a fudge then if there is no other way?
