R6900P ROUTER: I keep getting firmware upgrade notices, but then Nighthawk app says there are none.
For the second or third time in the past coiuple of years, I received an email purportedly from Netgear telling me there was a "security" firmware update for my router. When I went to the Nighthawk app on my tablet, however, I was told there were no updates. Was this a "phisihing" email, or don't I need the update - or does the Nighthawk app have a problem?

the emails sent out aren't always the most accurate.
