I don’t have an 11th gen anymore but I have a 12th gen 1280p and 6Ghz isn’t blocked; that said I still don’t have a 6Ghz router to attempt to connect to with it, but at least the frequencies show up as available.

Finally updated to 3.17 and it seems that this issue persists. Hopefully the team gets around to fixing this, it’s annoying for those of us that have 6E APs.

You likely haven’t. Clearing CMOS resets this and that is what happens during BIOS upgrade, presumably.
Kernel 6.1.9 on 3.17 displays the same behavior.
I’m curious as to what major regression has been found that has prevented this from going to a full release. Also, is there a timeline on the full release?

I was wondering if there’s any word on 3.17 being finalized or if I should just go ahead with the beta? Beta’s been out for some time. Thanks for all your hard work! @Framework

I upgraded via lvfs on my 11th gen main board and had no hiccups in the process - however I do have the issue (mentioned in the 12th gen 3.06 BIOS thread) of having to reset USB-A and HDMI cards after rebooting.
I’m a general Framework fanboi, but it’s getting hard to not notice that we should expect a non-beta release “in about a week” is “about 4 months ago”. I don’t have any bios complaints so I’m not itching for it … but it just seems sloppy to leave that unaddressed.
Perhaps you should edit the very-visible pinned topic to correct this and perhaps provide an update on what’s going on?

Yeah c’mon Framework, push out the final version or just admit you have dropped active support for the 11th gen.

Non-beta was probably delayed to be a release with the support for the new battery module mentioned in Framework | 13th Gen Intel® Core™ and AMD Ryzen™ 7040 Series join the.

Good catch!
@Kieran_Levin So, the label “Beta” will be removed from BIOS 3.17 on this thread’s title?

I think the post will be too old to edit now.
@anon81945988 Not a mod lol, I can’t close topics anymore than you can. People with “Regular” status can edit titles and change classification but that’s about it. That and when we flag posts, the post gets instantly hidden instead of requiring multiple flags.

Yes, I have seen your thread. What is the “inconsistent” content?
I would prefer to continue to use this thread. Because it’s about BIOS 3.17. It’s still the same binary file. The beta/non-beta is just the label to describe the status.

In my memory, the BIOS 3.10 thread’s title was the beta first, then renamed for the official release. So, I thought we could do this way for the BIOS 3.17 thread too.
