Nighthawk AX6-RAX45 latest firmware
I have a Nighthawk Nighthawk AX6-RAX45. The current version in my router is: V1.0.2.82_2.0.50
It seems there are newer versions of the firmware out there but when I go to the Router Update option and select "Check" it tells me "No new firmware version available."
So I have 2 questions:
1. What is the latest firmware version for this router?
2. Why the built in option to update doesn't find newer versions of the firmware?
Thanks.

Input your router model #.

Some times NGs web site gets updated before the auto update servers. So they may not be on the same page.
You can always manual update FW as well:
