FW page shows 'Updates Available'
Experiencing the same thing with WBE750 APs. Notification that FW updates are available went out and the FW page shows 'Updates Available' in some icons, but when you attempt to 'update' it just says...

The official product support page still lists the 11.8.0.14 version as the latest available for the WBE750s despite these two latest versions (12.5.0.21 and 12.5.0.20) seemingly going out the door w/ email announcements but no viable way to actually use them. The release notes for the two recently released versions appear to be identical as well I am suspecting these may have bricked some devices and/or introduced some sort of problem that warranted pulling them back?

"Uuuups I did it again ..."?
Don't know what Netgear is doing these days ... after the unexpected (finally documented) removal of 12.5.0.20 and .21 -> Why was NETGEAR wireless access point v.12 firmware removed?
Netgear does continue announcing, this time 12.5.0.22, claiming again it's availability via Netgear Insight. Needless to say, neither available on Insight nor on the Netgear Support page.
And Insight does continue to state Update Available, [Update All] globally resp [Update] by device - despite the [Current Version] 11.8.0.14 and the [Targeted Version] 11.8.0.14 ...
Good mooooorning Netgear?!?
