Mostly general info, however NG compiles the code and does a quick check/test I presume, then NG works with ISPs and hands off any FW updates to the ISPs. ISPs then go thru there own testing to make sure it doesn't break anything on there network, I presume verifies FW works and any fixes are checked and then certifies it for there network if they approve. Once approved, for those ISPs that push to user owned modems, will push as seen with CC/XF. Some ISPs have policies that they will not push FW to user owned modems. Spectrum seems to be problematic in this area. :smileyfrustrated:

I've contacted Spectrum and had to go through a few different conversations to even try and connect to someone who knows about this process. They've repeatedly just told me to contact Netgear to solve the problem. Is there any information on how the individual ISP's approve and deploy these firmware updates? I'd be interested to know if anyone keeps track of that progress.
