@Neel   Hello,

ArcherC6v2_eu-up-ver1-0-1-P1[20180627-rel42764].bin is shown as invalid... The present SW is written in 2019. 

Thus I could not upgrade. Also noticed this firmware version could be some thing which is older(from name). Is it so?

Regards,

Neel

Hi Neel, it seems that the local official website has not uploaded the latest firmware. 

 

You can click https://www.tp-link.com/en/support/download/archer-c6/#Firmware  to get the right one.

 

May it help.
