Looks like another version was released last night for my nwa210ax.... No download or release notes available.

The patch 4 update V6.30(ABTD.4) for my NWA210AX does not show up in Nebula. Nebula says: All APs are up to date (running patch 3; ABTD.3).
The update ist also not available in the Zyxel download library.
Was the patch 4 update pulled?
