EX2700 range extender security patch available?

Is the EX2700 range extender security patch available yet?  

 

Is the EX2700 vulnerable to the recent hack possibilities that have been reported for a bunch of netgear routers?

 

I see that firmware version  1.0.1.10 is available.  I've never downloaded updates to my range extender.   Can I download the update to my desktop computer, then upload to the extender via wifi connection?

 

Thank you!

Hello 4gear

 

Those are just for the routers and if you want to update yes you can go to the support page and download these.
