We just released a new AP firmware with the following changes:

CWIFI-5217: improve traffic prioritisation especially for VoIP traffic
CWIFI-5008: fix issue that may cause packet drops or crashes in some scenarios
CWIFI-5107: fix VLAN handling for dynamic VLAN when there was another VLAN configured with the same ID
CWIFI-5222: prevent network (re-)configuration from affecting other running networks
CWIFI-5276: corrected channel assignment on 2.4 Ghz

The new firmware will be installed according to the update schedule you have defined.

Version 1.7.1 was used internally only and not publicly released. All fixes of version 1.7.1 are included in this version.

The firmwares in between these products are very different. CWIFI-5008 is potentially also affecting XG and UTM and we're currently testing it.

Worst part is the latest release fixes a number of issues I have raised in the XG forum.

I'm sorry for the confusion. This update is for Sophos Wireless only. I will add this information on the next blog posts.

My XG AP firmware is currently running v5.x.x how does this version get loaded onto the XG. I have triggered a manual update, but don't see any action. Today being the 19th I would have expected this software (firmware) to have been loaded automatically by now?
