I successfully upgraded my Redmi AC2100 to version 24.10.1 without any issues.
However, on my Redmi AX6000, after upgrading from 24.10.0 to 24.10.1, the version still shows as 24.10.0.
I tried the upgrade using both LuCI and owup, but the result is the same.

Do these device have a dual partition scheme??? (Just wondering without digging into device details, as that has historically caused this sort of issue.)
One went fine, 24.10.0 -> 24.10.1, working great
( luci unattended system upgrade)
Other one 23.05.5 r24106 -> 24.10.1
Keeps hanging on 'copying from browser' ( luci unattended system upgrade)
Sadly didn't had the time to debug, didn't try a reboot yet, it is mine main router.
luci attended system upgrade appeared to work but left me on 24.10.0 also. Tried a second time and it worked.
"dual partition scheme" might be the right guess.
I used ASU,
now I tried owut I noticed the warning

but nowhere my confirmation is asked and it just continues and it reboots, then nothing is updated
And I also don't know which package is missing
yes But, I don't know is uboot uses a dual partition scheme or not.
(I actually don't even really know what uboot does, except that this way the only way to get OpenWrt working on my device)

I'm experiencing same thing on Xiaomi Redmi Router AX6000 (OpenWrt U-Boot layout). Tried upgrading from luci with attendedsysupgrade and owut from cli. Every time I upgrade I see previous version 24.10.0.
