I've already downloaded subject firmware some days ago. Now I get a reminder to download it again. When comparing both bin files the first one has a size of 110,011,556 bytes, created on 11.05., while the file of today has a size of 110,011,558 bytes and was created on 10.06.
But it is still AAPH.0. Is it possible that Zyxel is correcting minor things directly without raising the AAPH level? Or is it a random display error by Windows?

    +1.
    4.63 was already applied on 100% of firewalls i am managing, but it appeared again few days ago (17/06) into FTP site (at least, changelogs and some more).

    Do devices need to be updated again?

    We have enhanced the cloud sync mechanism. For better cloud synchronization, we suggest to update firmware again.

    Hi Cooldia,
    Thanks for your reply. But I don't think that's a good idea to subsequently change something within the FW without changing the release number. This is confusing people.

    I Stand by @USG_User opinion. Zyxel several times used last digit for implement bugfix. Therefore  "AAPH.1" should be proper in this occasion.
    And with a proper announcement and bugfix disclose. I can understand that the FragAttack is making development and quality check teams work harder than usual, but the management should not be less diligent for publishing and detail updates.

    Update:
    this "updated version", at least for my knowledge, it's available also for USG40, USG40W, USG60 and USG60W.
