these are scary high numbers and the fact that no operator appears to be asking why any of
these >5600 failing installations do not come online is making this even more odd-looking to me.

I have assumed that 95% of users don't have public addresses or have port forwarding. It's a connectivity problem, I think.

are these actual 6000 unique deployments? how are they counted?
are endpoints submitting a unique ID to the update endpoint for the counter to work?
(or are these counters just based on counting unique source IPs hitting the update endpoint? [within a day?])
do you have AS or country break downs for that number?

I think it's a count of update checks within a normal update-check window.

I DO have country information. Attached. (I removed the countries with fewer than 3 in case that could be used to identify them.) Countries greater than 100 are

613 Germany
539 France
530 United States
455 Russian Federation
373 Brazil
332 Italy
315 India
288 Spain
217 Iran, Islamic Republic of
172 United Kingdom
140 Mexico
131 Ukraine
125 Poland
119 Canada
