Hello @Riley_S
When will these updates, specifically the VPN update come to the XE75? Just got this last week and realized it doesn't have this, yet. Is this in the works for the newer deco hardware?

The goal of the firmware with these features is to roll it out to as many models as possible. In fact, the feature is even being brought to some of our oldest deco models
The Deco X50/X55 were the absolute first Decos to receive the feature, as the developers often create firmware for these models first. Each week, different hardware versions and models receive these features, so you should be able to expect to see these features soon.
Unfortunately, our team has no real insights into what models will receive the firmware and when it may be available, so your best bet is to try and stay up to date with the most recent firmware listed on your product's download page. I do try to provide updates to the community whenever a model begins to receive the firmware.
