Hello TP-Link team,

I recently purchased the Archer C6 v4 router based on the comparison between the C6 v4 and the C64 from your official website. The comparison indicated that the C6 v4 supports OpenVPN connectivity, which was the main reason I chose this model. However, after installing the router and checking the admin panel, I was disappointed to find no VPN option.
 

I feel misled by the inaccurate information on your website. I have a screenshot of the comparison and would like to request clarification or a resolution for this issue.

Looking forward to your response.

Even the v2 and v3 models have OpenVPN connectivity, so why is it missing in v4? This feels like a bad joke!

You may find the compare link by clicking here: https://www.tp-link.com/in/compare/?typeId=9&productIds=50920%2C58556 

or see the screenshot or attached file.

Please give us the functionality in the next update or refund our money for the misled.

Thank you,

Thank you for posting your inquiry in the global community.

 

I apologize for any confusion or inconvenience caused by the misleading information on the website. I've reported this concern to the local website admins and requested an update to the specifications as soon as possible.

 

In your case, you can return the Archer C6 V4 and consider purchasing a different model that supports OpenVPN:

  @Kevin_Z 

If I attempt to return this router, which seller would accept a broken seal and a used device?
This is not a practical or realistic solution.
I made the purchase based on the information provided on your official website, and I feel misled. There needs to be a better resolution offered here, such as an exchange or compensation for the inaccurate details.

I can confirm that you're located in Bangladesh and purchased the router from a local store. I've forwarded your case to the relevant team, and they may contact you directly via email. Please wait patiently and let me know if you need further help.
