WAC510 Firmware Update v9.9.2.13 and v9.9.3.2

In the past two weeks I receive two emails from Netgear informing me that there were updates available to my WAC510 router.  The first email (on 12/15/2023) stated v9.9.2.13 was available.  The second email (on 12/23/2023) stated v9.9.3.2 was available.

After I received each email I logged into my WAC510 router using the admin tool.  I selected the "check for firmware update" option and the response was that there was no update available.   The router currently has an older version installed than those listed above.

In prior notices when I checked for updates it always told me there was an update available and asked if I wanted to update my router.

Any idea what's going on?

    One of the most asked question in the community related to firmware updates. It's not uncommon that live update availability are delayed, or can be postponed based on various KPIs. It's nice one can click a button of course. This is about the Email content - at least the version I have received.
