We should ask muzza of course, but I think he's saying that the procedure to download an online update is too difficult when it's not networked. USB updates are his only option.

Re: When will firmware 17.5 become official?

So, getting back to the question in the OP... Any idea when 17.5 will become an official release, with the usual publicity from Wiz HQ and availability from the production stream? I'd like to know this too. Not keen on attempting the procedure to get the Beta version. And my T4 isn't networked.
