Depends on your modem. Would tell you for mine, but no power, so cant
connect to it now.

They may release bug fixes. But these are low price high volume products.
Most dont have any majorly new features since the initial standards were
written. Bug fixes are rare, newer models probably have the same
codebase+fixes.

IIRC airtel has an ftp site with updates for their modems, but these are
not regular.

You are better off using community firmware on/or a higher end
modem+wireless router that has more security features/better community/
support.
