Likely ended (estimate)

Security updates likely ended . last update April 2019

The maker lists this model as discontinued (no longer sold). It promises security updates until 3 years after a model is discontinued, but it does not publish the discontinuation date, so the end date can’t be calculated. ipTIME update policy (opens in a new tab)

Dates and sources

Dates and sources

The maker hasn’t announced an end date for this model, and there has been no new update for about 7 years 6 months since its last update (April 2019). That is longer than my 18-month rule for routers, so I estimate support has ended.
