Current Motorola MB8600 Modem firmware for AZ?

I live in Arizona and my Motorola MB8600 cable modem had firmware version 8600-18.2.9 for over a year. On Sept 30th, 2020 Cox pushed firmware version 8600-19.3.11 to it. Did anyone else get this firmware update, and if not, what firmware is your MB8600 currently using? I have yet to see anyone mention this particular firmware version.

    8600-19.3.11 is the most recent firmware. Firmware updates are automatically pushed out to your modem when an approved update is available. Cox goes through a testing and certification process for firmware updates to make sure they will work on our system and are free of bugs.

      My Motorola MB8600 modem is still on firmware version 8600-18.2.9. I was told that version 8600-19.3.11 was not available in my area (SoCal). Please advise.

    Now just got another Motorola MB8600 firmware push to firmware version 8600-19.3.15 I think today January 12th, 2021. Firmware sequence since I purchased this modem when it first came out.

    8600-6.1.1.19   >>>   8600-18.2.9   >>>   8600-19.3.11   >>>   8600-19.3.15
