OrbiOS 2.1.4 availability

Is 2.1.4 stable? I’m still on 2.1.2.18. Has anyone successfully updated through the app with rbk50 system and then not heard anyone yelling about the WiFi not working?
Performed the update via the phone app. Went smoothly, no factory reset needed. Things have been running as expected to my knowledge for about 12 hours now.

I'm not sure why they are releasing firmware update option via the App and Web UI when upgrade firmware isn't available for ALL devices. You really shouldn't update with only partial firmware available. Updating the router and one satellite (RBR50 and RBS50) and then leaving the RBS50Y and a RBS40 for instance on older firmware is just a recipe for disconnects and frustration.
