I noticed something mysterious and disturbing about my Zyxel FWA710: I found the old FW V1.20 installed when I upgraded to V1.60 a few weeks ago!!!

Well... I also searched the Nebula Cloud services to see if there was something that for some reason had automatically installed 1.20, but I didn't find anything.

Has anyone ever experienced something similar?

    My FWA505 was downgraded from v1.60 to v1.19 because the first release of v1.60 was bugged.

    Later, a patched version (v1.60(ACKO.2)) was released and I was able to upgrade again.

    You should check on Nebula Cloud if a newer firmware version is available for your FWA710.

    Hi,

    mmmhhhh I'm not sure this is the rational: the last version is always the FW Version "FWA710 V1.60(ACGC.1)C0". If there is a problem with this version, remove it from the downloadable versions. I installed it again, let's see what happens.

    However thanks for the information, it seems to exist a services that downgrade the firmware if necessary.

    Ciao, Luca

    Hi @Luca_G

    Could you help to enable Zyxel support access so we can help to check?

    FWA710 doesn't encounter the issue that @Daniel_505 mentioned, so the firmware of FWA710 should not be scheduled for previous firmware.

    Only a Question: I use the FWA710 to Work, it's absolutely important not to have disservices during your checking. is that so?

    Hi @Luca_G

    It won't have disservices during the checking since we only check the logs.
