AP1130 and AP650(AH) firmware divergence?

[systemscsn]

I noticed that firmware for the AP650(AH) is out, with the new version being 10.5.4.0.

I updated a few of the AP's that had zero clients, startign on my AP650(ah)'s, and then went to update the firmware on the AP1130's. thats when i noticed that 10.5.4.0 wasnt an option, only the previous version 10.5.3.0.

Whats going on?  since ive had this system (since Aerohive) its been the same firmware for the AP650's as it has for the AP1130's.

Dont tell me that the firmware is going to start to diverge based on the model of AP... please dont tell me that.... not a good idea..

Anyway, im interested why the latest isnt available for the AP1130's, anyone?

Nothing back yet..... still waiting.

thought id share this screenshot.. although as said, still waiting to hear more about this:

Well ive opened a GTAC ticket for this, as its still showing only the previous firmware and not the latest.  So odd.  Ive tried everything from reboots, to reverting back to template defaults, and nothing has changed.  Has anyone else got AP1130's that dont give the latest firmware as an option?

I did too on March 7th, GTAC said they don't have access to a newer AP1130 firmware than 10.5r3.

@daniel1  and it appears the same is now true for 10.5.5.0, that AP1130's wont take it either.  

This is what GTAC just messaged me, "I believe this may be an error with the documentation as I have checked with my team and we are unable to push the 1130 to 10.5.4. I apologize about the inconvenience."

What's crazy, is that not only do the release notes for 10.5.4.0 say AP1130's are included, but in checking the release notes for the "brand new" 10.5.5.0 firmware, that also says its available for AP1130's.  Someone is messing up bigtime on their documentation.  Although i didnt like the part of GTAC's reply that said "I believe this may", i like black and white, it is or it isnt.  But if I/we take it at face value, 10.5.3.0 is the latest firmware for AP1130's.

Thanks, Jason.

Yup, thats what i thought, but the latest firmware is not available for the AP1130's.

here shows the 10.5.x.x versions available for the AP1130:

only 10.5.r1 & r2 & r3.  not .r4

Selecting only one AP, then using the install latest firmware (which auto-selects the latest) shows only the 10.5.3.0 version, here:

So unless its being held longer in QA, i have no idea why it isnt availabel for the AP1130's.

Thanks, Jason.
