Hell all, thank you all for your patient waiting.

 

We have recently received a beta firmware to resolve this issue, please give it a try on the Archer C7 if you need this USB access with authentication, thanks:

Is your Archer A7 a US version or an EU one? We currently only have the beta firmware for the US version, if yours is an EU version, we may need to confirm with the R&D.

 

Please confirm if you are encountering the same issue as the others in this post that you cannot access the HDD once enabled authentication, what is the error message, thanks.

Thanks for your reply!

I think my Archer A7 is an EU one as I bought it in Germany. The hardware version is Archer A7 v5.0.

And yes, it's the same issue as the other ones: the message is that user name and/or password is incorrect!

@Kevin_Z  sorry, I not made myself clear, i don't speak English. 

I've not tested the beta FW because i have an EU C7.

What i was saying was that the new, last, EU FW (201030) has the bug, if you downgrade to the previous one (200628 or 190726) authentication works fine.
