Hello,
I would like you to introduce you a new possibilities of using your router. By using Filement.com you are able to make your own private cloud and to use your router just like google drive.
Here demo video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B-SCJO6okOA

Currently is available for Archer C7 and N750 but soon we will make more firmwares.
Firmware link: http://www.filement.com/routers/filement-on-your-router
Youtube demo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B-SCJO6okOA

Currently we have introduced firmwares for : C7 (AC1750) , N750 (TL-WDR4300) , N600 (TL-WDR3600)
If you need firmware for another router, feel free to write and we will check what we are able to do.
--------------------------------
Edit: We have released a new version with many fixed bugs, that were reported from our TP-Link users.
Also we are introducing written from scratch DLNA service for the router.
Other than the traditional DLNA service, we are providing the ability to transparently restream the shared content.
For example you are able to make DLNA stream of any file from your pc,phone and etc from your router directly.
Also you are able to stream via DLNA files that are shared from your friends. For example you are able to stream to your TV the music that is shared from your friends.
However the DLNA functionality is still experimental and might have troubles, we need a lot of feedback to fix the bugs there :)

Original firmware, with added Filement application and a little modifications in the web interface so you are able to pair your router with your account.
This way you are able to access your router from everywhere even without having real IP address.
Other than the ftp you are able to use and share your data.

Is this safe solution? Who is the author of this firmware?

Yes, it is safe enough solution.
1. It is much safer than existing solution on the routers, for example the requests to router are encrypted with changing keys per session to prevent man in the middle, only the encryption keys are exchanged trough our servers with encrypted connection. (in FTP your connections are not encrypted)
2. The traffic is direct to your router if it is possible ( if you have real ip address), otherwise is relayed trough our services.
3. The firmware is made by Filement.com, the company is backed by investment company in Bulgaria with lots of partnerships.
4. Currently we are considering to make the device code open source.

Yes I know but this changes in original firmware and I'm afraid about my security in network? I don't have guarantee that those changes not introduce some spyware in router firmware.

I don't understand why you are so offensive. For making the service it costs us thousands hours of work and a lot of resources to make all this stuff to work.
What is the point of doing it for wrong cause like compromising the security like sniffing the traffic of consumer devices? If we wanted to, it would be much better going to the enterprise type of hardware that are used by the companies. There is no point to make a bad name with having some backdoors in the software!
Also we are providing the service for free without asking you to pay even a dime, may be in the future we will make some premium accounts with more specific features, but current features will be free of charge. So other than offending, it will be much more helpful to test it and to report bugs or feature requests and to help us grow the service.

And to answer the questions:
jimasek you are always able to extract the firmware and to compare the changes with the original firmware.
About the DDoS or something other, there is nothing hidden, Filement is legal organization and it is clearly written where you are able to find it and to make a charge to the court.
There is nothing anonymous or hidden.

nnikov, sorry, but I am not a specialist, to conduct analysis of the differences with the original firmware, however, agree that before the publication of the conclusion of an expert on the security of your design, my fears have the place to be.
