What is the changelog for firmware V2.3.2.40 XR500
I see there is a new firmware update for the XR500 and I want to know what changes are coming with this update.
Could this finaly be the update with all the new features that the DUMA OS should have had by now ?

Yes it is the update with the new features such as hybridvpn and ping assist. It has been long awaited
When you go to the update link in the web console it will show you patch notes. I'm pretty sure you can read them without actually committing to the patch. Didn't make a copy so don't have it at hand and I can no longer get there because I have already patched.
Most noticable new feature is the change of the VPN client over to hybridVPN and the support of a second VPN provider (pureVPN in addition to HMA).
If I recall correctly there were also tweaks to geo-filtering, ping information, and some bug fixes relating to speed testing as part of setup as well as in the mobile app.
- Netduma_JackNetDuma PartnerWe’ll need Netgear to post the full changelog, but I can confirm this includes ALL of DumaOS development milestone 1.3. So this includes:
- Hybrid VPN
- Ping Assist
- Advanced Ping Stats
- Table view on Device Manager
Here are guides on how to setup Hybrid VPN and Ping Assist:

I had to do the auto update since I can’t find the manual download which ain’t a issue I just wanna know everything they tweaked and changed/added in. I’m sure they will put it out eventually but should have came out yesterday with the update I don’t understand why they would not release it on their website.
- Netduma-FraserNetDuma PartnerThey likely want to do a staged rollout so if there are any issues it won't affect the majority of users
