@ExtremeFiretop,
That was a great catch by the SNB Forum user (scootertramp)!!!
I've reviewed the changes, and they look solid. I think you nailed the solution.

Later tonight (when everyone goes to sleep), I'll run some tests on my PRO router since I have not yet updated to the latest 3006.102.5 F/W release. I'll let you know of the results.

@ExtremeFiretop,

I just ran a few tests on my RT-AX86U_PRO to detect the latest RMerlin 3006.102.5 F/W version, and everything went well. The version numbers were generated & compared correctly, and the notification date was updated properly.
Sample screenshots:

Good to go!!

Agreed! Good catch and i won't lie it confused me at first. But once I narrowed down the area of interest it was just a question of what was the best way to deal with it without breaking anything else lol!

Awesome! Yes it's time to pull that PRO router out and put it to work 😉

Perfect... Yes I really wanted to be sure the comparisons were still working correctly.
That function at the end of the day impacts lots based on the comparisons it spits out so it's important we review.

Indeed!! That function cannot be broken!!! It must work every single time for ALL models and F/W releases (Merlin's & Gnuton's).
