Notification in GUI that new firmware is available

[jhferry]

Hey everyone, logged into my router today and I had a flashing notufication that a new f irmware was available. I assumed it was Asus stock do I did not update. Was that right?

I've just checked the firmware manually and didn't throw me anything but the signature version could be updated. When I had a beta installed, it was constantly giving "update avaliable" message. And it was just the signature version in both cases. You could try to update it, just in case.

it maybe an update for the KRACK , what model asus do you have , in theory merlin fw should not report asus stock fw updates

And what f/w version are you running?

If I click on the yellow exclamation mark on the overview page, I get only the changelog in the popup but don't see for which firmware revision this is for.

i should probably update from 380.67 to fix that, then again one need to be on mac address allow to gain access to begin with, not sure if that "krack" bypasses that though

It dont it just notifies about Merlin if your using Merlin in first place updates and give you link to download, asus can download it with GUI and install it for you,

I did notice that when I first flashed to 380.67 merlins, i accidentally clicked get new update from initial setup of router, and that page started to download update from asus. cause merlin does not do automatic updates you have manual download and install last i checked.
