Updates for standalone firmware?

Question

It seems like 9.13 and 9.12 MR3 both reference some AP specific bugfixes / new functionality, but standalone firmware hasn't been updated since last October.

Will there be an update to standalone firmware coming?

unknown · Answer

Are there any more standalone version firmware updates planned for release?
Last version 100.1.0.0.432 was released end of 2015, surely there are more improvements that can be made or has development stopped for this device in standalone mode?

Understood — however, currently the latest standalone versions posted are 100.2.x for R710 and 100.1.x for all the others.

These seem to substantially predate the 9.12.3 and 9.13 ZD releases by 6+ months and it seems unlikely they contain the same fixes as the latest ZD releases, right?

For example, the 9.12 MR3 release notes reference these three R710 issues resolved that are not referenced in any of the 100.x release notes:

* Resolved an issue that could lead to kernel panic on R710. [ER-3874]

* Resolved several issues that could lead to lower than expected performance on
R710 compared to R700 due to incorrect handling of power save clients, target
hang detection, DFS channel changes, and a beacon stuck issue due to VDEV
channel mismatch. [ER-4060]

* Resolved an issue with lower than expected throughput on R710 on non-DFS
channels. [ER-4234]

Hi, John
the standalone version is now starting with 100.x.x.x

They have the same fixes as the 9.x for the ZD.

Kind regards
