Interesting I wonder if some of these changes will eventually come to the bt10. Specifically the backhaul improvements as I do see backhaul issues on the 10.

Any idea if the non Pro version of the BQ16 will also get any update for us in the UK?
Welcome and I will check with ASUS

I think there’s minimum support time vendors have to support them now by law – 5 years I think? But I would assume BQ16 will get the updates first and then they will filter their way down to the 10 and 8 some time after.

ASUS will offer security update support to the networking products complied with UK PSTI(Product Security and Telecommunications Infrastructure Act) until the date specified below.
The PSTI came into affect on the 29th Apr 2024, 4 years is the requirement but ASUS do usually go beyond that.
Note: frequency of updates is a totally different scenario

Support for BQ16 until December 2026 ?!?!?!?! Seriously ? Must be a mistake… It comes with supposedly at least 3 year warranty but updates and security support for not even 2 years ?

Guarantee a typo form their perspective, ASUS are not dynamic in this area.
ASUS ZenWiFi BQ16 was released in 2024, so support (firmware) should be to at least 2028.
