> I don't think the firmware needs to be uploaded at all to the AR9285 device.

I don't understand:

1. free firmware - anyone can update the firmware
2. binary blob - the vendor can update the firmware
3. fixed at manufacturing time - no one can update the firmware

Option 1 is obviously superior to the other two. But how is option 3
better than option 2?
