@TP-Link 

What has happened to the firmware for hardware version 3? The firmware download page only lists 1, 2 and 4 now.

@thomas-k  Hello, 

As we confirmed RE450 V3 is not shipped to US for selling and US website does not list V3 firmware. 

Please check the country version likeUS/ UK/EU etc. on the device back label and download firmware from here:
