Hopefully one of these old EU versions will do the trick (start with 1.5 then work down).

If one of those work, Perform an upgrade to v1.6.0_0.91 EU :

Thank you for your reply.

I have tried the images in the sequence as you requested. None of them worked however.

 

The results are as follows:

1.5.0_0.9.1 - Immediately shows error code 71211
1.3.0_0.9.1 - Uploads to 10% then shows error code 4503
1.2.0_0.9.1 - Uploads to 10% then shows error code 4503
1.1.0_0.9.1 - Immediately shows error code 71211
1.0.0_0.9.1 - Immediately shows error code 71211
Beta 211229 - Uploads to 10% then shows error code 4503
Beta 211018 - Uploads to 10% then shows error code 4503

I still think that the current image is locked to only accept ZA-N localised firmware, so a custom ZA-N localised image that removes that restriction is required. (or which changes it to accept EU images)

The firmware at this link works:

That is starting to make sense.  If correct,  Archer MR600(EU)_V2_220105 would have a localised 'ZA' version that would serve as a 'middle-firmware' to EU..

I have again tried version 1.6.0_0.9.1 that you mentioned, just to confirm, and it also immediately stops with error code 71211.

Current version installed on the router is 1.0.0 0.9.1 v0001.0 Build 210804 Rel.46439n.

I have tried the custom ISP image you suggested and it also failed after uploading to 10% with error code 4503

It looks like the same image that was suggested to someone else in the thread, I actually tested that one last night.

I also tried the previously suggested DREI_TO_EU custom image last night with the same result, so it doesn't work either - which I expected but tried anyways.
