Hi Dacsoft,

Have you tried scrolling down a bit whilst hovering mouse over "system tools " there is another tab below where you are looking that gives this :

You then need to go here and get the update file and save it on your Desktop :

http://uk.tp-link.com/download/Archer-VR900_V1.html#Firmware

PICTURE 2

Then Unzip the file on your desktop and you will see a " bin " file like this :

Use the browse button and select this bin file on your desktop and everything else is automatically done .

Follow instructions in pdf , don't forget to backup your config file first by using the next tab down

"Backup and Restore " so your settings on router can be reinstalled easy if they get deleted during the update.


They don't usually and I have updated both my v1 and v2 VR900's recently .



Not sure about a v3 but both v1 and v2 are different routers , white is v1 and black is v2 ,

the only difference is one of the Broadcom chips inside which is slightly newer on the v2


If you go to here there is a discussion on VR900 :

The Interfaces look very similar if not identical and both perform the same on my 80/20 VDSL line.

V1 and V3 have differences on hardware part. No way to upgrade the hardware part.
