https://www.zyxel.com/global/en/support/download?model=usg-flex-200h link leads to portal.myzyxel.com where H series is missing.

Is there any other place to download 1.20 firmware?

    You have to download it by the Flex200H UI be sure to be on 1.10(ABWV.1)C0 and you should see a way to update

    I have 1.20 on running partition.

    I want to upgrade the standby partition without downgrading to 1.10(ABWV.1)C0 because it messes with config (reset to default, because V1.10(ABWV.1)ITS-24WK05-M3737 config isn't compatible with 1.10(ABWV.1)C0. I want to minimize downtime to 5 minutes instead to 15-20. Also, I prefer to download firmware like I did with previous Zyxel devices and upgrade locally.

    At some point I to would like to download the firmware but I don't know the reason why you can't.

    as it is you have V1.20 so next firmware it will update the standby

    The firmware upgrade functionality should be the same as on ZLD. That is, upgrading standby without reboot, and selectively upgrading the desired partition (choice of standby or running).

    New firmware download should always be available, so that people on weekly firmware don't have to go through 3 reboots just to upgrade to latest version.

    H series should not be released with the state of uOS as it is currently. It is ridiculous.

    By the time we get semi usable device it will be declared EOL. Incredible waste of time and money.

    The problem is the old ZLD could never do the speed that uOS can so at some point they had to do this.

    It seems that Zyxel encourages to use cloud upgrade to avoid unreachable

    Read the Note:

    Note: For the initial installation of the USG FLEX H Series firewall, please using the firmware wizard to upgrade to uOS 1.08 Patch 1 firmware first, and then proceed with the upgrade to uOS1.10 firmware. The device becomes unreachable if you upgrade USG FLEX H directly from factory default version to 1.10 P1 or later firmware version directly.
