I have the TP-Link Archer C7 V2. My router has firmware version 3.13.34 Build 131217 Rel 60903n.

From all I have read here that firmware version appears old enough that it would allow me to install without all the difficulties described elsewhere with newer firmware versions that block flashing correct?

What file/version would be the best (radios working/no problems) to flash in my situation?

Thanks
1.9.2 from the download page.

I just purchased an Archer C7 V2 as well. but get an error 180005 when i try and load firmware. How did you get the firmware loaded?
And i thought i read something now (after having purchased) that the C7 running on Open WRT (which Gargoyle is based on??) is much slower than native firmware?

I'm not super technical so step by step explanations please :)
