Re: New firmware not available
what firmware version are you on?
We see it a lot where a mass email is sent to regardless of your firmware version. And sometimes its sent out after the fact by a ways.

Re: New firmware not available
I guess it is the 3.2(Without Mobile View) as seen on this page - http://support.netduma.com/support/solutions/articles/16000132677-dumaos-firmware-progress.
The email came from security@e.netgear.com. Never received anything from this address before but nothing suggests the email is a scam.

Re: New firmware not available
It should have a firmware version either in the browser or the app.
You can compare it with the official version:

Already updated to 1.0.0.64 a long time ago. So it could be a very late email to upgrade to 1.0.0.64 or it is the new firmware .

Re: New firmware not available
There is a new firmware coming soon, but I don't know the exact date they plan to release it.
I'm not aware of them ever sending out these emails in the past, so unless it's a new thing they're doing perhaps just delete it to be safe. If it's a scam it's pretty clever, not worth risking following any of the links in there until we know though.
