Thanks.

Re: R8000 EOL date?
And many of them get the updates from the chipset maker. If the chipset maker still pushes updates, the router can still get updates. The R7000 for example still gets updates and it was released in 2013. Versus some newer routers have already been EOL because the chipset maker isn't updating them anymore.
