Should I upgrade my R8000 from V1.0.3.46_1.1.32 to new release R8000P-V1.0.1.8_1.0.68
Hoping for some help in this firmware question. I just received an email notice from Netgear that I need to upgrade "for security issues" to firmware R8000P-V1.0.1.8_1.0.68. My question is that I have just recently upgraded firmware to V1.0.3.46_1.1.32 - which in my ears seem like a later and more recent version, hence the third digit being a 3 instead of a 1 in the one I´ve got. And when I log on to the router as an administrator and check for updates, it tells me that I have the latest firmware ( V1.0.3.46_1.1.32). Anyone that has performed this update?
I would so appreciate some adwise on this update. Should it be done? Especially since there seems to be a risk that this version overwrights all my personalized settings.

Might have figured it out on my own. I have the model R8000 - Nighthawk X6—AC3200 Tri-Band WiFi Gigabit Router. But the email Netgear sent me seems to regard the R8000P—Nighthawk X6S—AC4000 Tri-Band WiFi Router.
I simply don´t have the router they are emailing me about. Good thing I didn´t just upload and tries to overwright V1.0.3.46_1.1.32, which does seem to be the correct firmware for the one I´ve got.
