R8000 V1.0.5.88 released?
I have been having connectivity issues with my R8000 as of late (~2 weeks) and finally came looking today for solutions. To my great surprise (and skepticism) there is a new V1.0.5.88 firmware available as of today?!?
My incredulity stems partly from the large version bump (1.0.4.88->1.0.5.88) when the release notes state that the release only "addresses security vulnerabilities". I can find no mention of which security vulnerabilities this addresses on the advisory page . Additionally, aren't security patches typically relegated to W in the X.Y.Z.W version ID? All this compounds when considering this device is EOL for some time now...
At any rate, curious to hear any more about this mysterious release and to hear if anyone else has tried it out.
Best,
S

I'm a bit surprised as that device is pushing a decade old.
