Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.1.8 Build 20221121 Rel. 36691

Hi there, I just bought the Deco XE5300 from Costco and it looks like they sent me one with the hardware version 1.6. I see the latest is 2.6 and I'm wondering what changed from 1.6 to 2.6 and whether I should try and get the latest instead. I see that they use different firmware versions (ex: The latest 1.6 version is V1.6_1.1.8 Build 20221121 and the latest 2.6 is V2.6_1.0.0 Build 20220929) so I'm wondering if there are advantages to getting a newer hardware model? Thanks in advance to anyone that can chime in, I can't seem to find any information online and I want to make sure that I have a version that will stay supported and give me the best experience. Thanks!
