I know this is odd but Samsung has this setup strange...
If you are on OH7 and want a newer firmware but do not want to Odin the firmware here you are.
First if you download SmartSwitch directly from Samsung it will give you BOJ1.
There really is not anything to it except for downloading and installing the PC software.
Get SmartSwitch here http://www.samsung.com/us/smart-switch/
Once you connect the device with SmartSwitch open it will prompt you to update to BOJ1 5.1.1.
If you would like the LATEST firmware for the Tab S2 T710 directly from Samsung you must use Kies 3.
1. Download Kies 3 for PC http://downloadcenter.samsung.com/content/SW/201601/20160113145814167/Kies3Setup.exe
2. Connect your device and ignore any suggestion to download SmartSwitch. (Kies keeps complaining and suggesting you download SmartSwitch)
3. Once you pass all the SmartSwitch suggestions you will be on a Kies screen that looks like its not detecting your Tab S2. From here Click "Tools"
4. Select Firmware Upgrade and Initialization.
5. Type your model name "SM-T710" (Make sure you type this in capitol letters)
6. Type your serial number when prompted.
7. Click OK when asked if you "want to proceed with the firmware upgrade and initialization" (all settings and data will be deleted but not after you press OK)
8. The next popup will be another to confirm the upgrade to OL6. (This is the last chance to abort the flash)
Notes:
-It should be noted that once you upgrade to a particular firmware you might not be able to downgrade to the previous ones.
-I am not exactly sure why OL6 is not available via SmartSwitch. Perhaps it is because SmartSwitch is new and they have not linked the update with the servers yet.
-OJ6 is also available via Sammobile as an Odin flashable TAR.
Trying Smart Switch and it's not showing any update

Do I need to boot to Download mode?
Edited: Could it be that because my tab is from Poland region I can't get any Kies or Smart Switch updates?

No you dont need to do download mode?
What firmware are you currently on? It should prompt you as once you connect the device.
If you are on OJ1 it will not prompt for anything else.
OL6 will show up by using Kies (Kies is the older version of smartswitch)

I was on 5.0.2 but it was not showing any other firmware because of the region my tablet was bought. Now I flashed with odin and will be doing it the first day 6.0.1 hits

Install SAMSUNG KIES AND USB Drivers for Samsung Galaxy Note to connect the Android device with the computer.
Enable USB Debugging Mode on phone to connect it with the computer.
[Navigate to Settings>> About phone>> tap Build number seven times. A pop up will appear, that reads, ‘You are now a developer.’ Go back to the Developer options and check USB debugging and click OK.]
As the tutorial is likely to wipe out all data of the phone, create a backup. If the device is having any custom recoveries such as CWM/TWRP then backup data using the same.
If the Android phone powers off due to lack of battery while the installation process, it could damage the device. Therefore, the Note 4 should have charge above 80% battery charge.

Ignore that message. Click on firmware initialisation and put in your serial number and whatever else it asks for and let Kies do its thing.

I presume by Odin 10.00 you mean 3.10? If so, try DL 3.09 and use that - it's what I have used all along with my Note 3. Odin is not necessarily 'latest is best' in versions.
Next, turn phone OFF and even remove battery for 10 secs or so, then start Odin and then start phone into Download mode and THEN connect it to PC - do you get the blue OK in Odin? Do you get an 'Added' in the action box?
Which firmware are you trying to flash?
Something else to try is to turn phone off, wait a bit, start using the download mode keys but press Vol DOWN to start instead of Vol UP to go into DL - sometimes lets the phone boot.
I have a note 3 and I'm trying to install the stock firmware on it. I found that Samsung has a section on their website where I can download the firmware, but they want me to name the specific model number of my phone. I know it's an n900, but the model number they want is more specific than that. Here's the link to the downloads page that I'm trying to use:
samsung.com/us/support/downloads
an example of the sort of model number they want is this: SM-N900AZKEATT, or SM-N900AZWEATT
Can anyone tell me where on my phone to look for that sort of model number? Thanks in advance. (If it helps, I originally bought the phone in Taiwan, from the carrier "FarEasTone".)
enter download mode (power + home + vol down) and you will see your exact model.

Unfortunately, I believe I installed custom recovery software at one point, and because of that my screen looks like this when I start up in download mode. Is there another way to find my exact model number?

What I'm trying to do is to revert my phone to stock everything. Stock android, stock recovery, stock firmware, unrooted. I'm not even sure if I ever installed custom firmware, but I want to reinstall the official release just in case. Do you have any idea what order these different steps should be performed in? If the first step is to reinstall the stock recovery software, that seems to solve my problem, because I can reinstall the stock recovery software, get the exact model number from it, and then reinstall the stock firmware. But if, for example, the steps need to be done in this order: unroot, stock firmware, stock recovery, stock OS, then I need to find a different way to get my phone's exact model number.
Thanks in advance for any thoughts that you ( or anyone else ) can share.
Use Phone Info app from play store .

I have a Lenovo tab 4 plus TB-8704V and having a lot of performance/wifi issues. I found that verizon has this update listed on their site(TB-8704V_RF001_191028), but my tablet says that it is on the latest version at TB-8704V_RF01_181122
Any idea if I can download or install this update manually?
thanks

Unfortunately I can't find where to download it. I found another newer update on a post here, but it appears to be fro the 10" version and is a different number.
how to update to the latest stock
You can use the Lenovo's Rescue and Smart Assistant to update your tablet to the latest stock (8.1.0 with 2020 security updates). I just did it to my TB-8704v.
Reboot to bootloader (adb reboot bootloader), were you see the "Fastboot" and laying down Android guy.
Launch the Rescue and Smart Assistant, go to Lenovo Tablet, product name Lenovot Tab 4 8 plus, model name TB-8704V, HW code - 11 (this will give you Oreo 8.1.0), click Rescue Now.
Follow instructions.
You tablet will be flashed with the stock Oreo firmware, TB-8704V_USR_S001026_1906291850.
Do system updates twice to get the latest security updates after the rescue.

Thanks a ton for the tip!
I had the same issue - tablet on 7.1.1 but not able to detect the new updates. Downloaded Rescue and Smart Assistant from Lenovo's website, followed the instructions and voila!
One difference from the steps you described though - putting the device in fastboot mode didn't work for me. With the tablet in fastboot mode, the Rescue and Smart Assistant app was stuck on "Download Recovery File to Phone" for ~15min without making progress.
So I ended up following the instructions in the app - power off, hold the volume up button (but NOT the power button so the tablet stays off), then plug into the computer. The app was then able to flash the tablet as expected, even though the tablet's display remained blank throughout.
