Latest firmware version: v1.0.2.63
I have one question. Is the latest firmware version v1.0.2.63, A.K.A. R7800-V1.0.2.63_beta a BETA VERSION or not? Thanks in advance.
Its a Beta Hotfix for a kernel security issue.
'The firmware versions that end in “_BETA” are security hotfixes. Security hotfixes are beta firmware created outside of normal development and testing processes. While the hotfixes do fix the security vulnerabilities identified above, they could negatively affect the regular operation of your device. Though our pre-deployment testing process did not indicate that these hotfixes would impact device operability, we always encourage our users to monitor their device closely after installing the firmware hotfix.
NETGEAR strongly recommends that you download the latest firmware fixes or hotfixes for these product models as soon as possible'
