I think the 4.4.5 (plus 4.4.5.2) firmware has been pulled. Back to 4.4.3.1 as the latest available now.

Good news .... Draytek may be keeping an eye on the forums I guess.

I don't know about others but having been a Draytek customer for 15 years now my number one priority (by far) is reliability (and security) for 24/7 operation without needing manual intervention (I have Drayteks on a couple of remote sites). Coming second (by a long way) is the introduction of new features !

I don't see this change. Both are still very much available, on the DrayTek FTP and the 4.4.5 release on the UK support page.

Both are still active and the downloading of them still works!

All still there on UK, USA, AU and Taiwan sites...so no idea where you're looking.

4.4.5 still there for the 2865 too. Its just as broken.

Not sure where you're getting this information from OP.

I think, he means this file from DrayTek ftp:
https://fw.draytek.com.tw/Vigor2927/Firmware/latest.txt

Ok, so possibly the cause of the confusion but, the UK support page lists:

Who knows what DrayTek are up to currently. They seem to go mute when asked about any issue which is clearly observable and highlighted by their user base. We can't all be going crazy, can we?
