I also wonder if AVMS upgrade can help

You can also have a look on this one which says it needs intermediate firmware for very old firmware

> Greetings, we have some EM7565 modules which are still on the very old firmware SWI9X50C\_01.00.02.00 (6ff48a jenkins 2017/09/29 05:54:26) and would like to update them due to some issues. However, in the release notes it is said that this requires to flash a specific firmware version first (release 9, if I understand correctly). Where can I find this specific firmware version?
