Archer C9 V1: 3 Firmware Upgrade Questions

2019-10-16 04:13:25

Model: Archer C9

Hardware Version: V1

Firmware Version: 3.17.0

I have an Archer C9 V1 with Firmware Version 3.17.0

I am in the USA and plan to update my firmware from here:
https://www.tp-link.com/us/support/download/archer-c9/v1/#Firmware

Question 1: If I update the firmware, will that update the Admin interface (which is very old and clunky in Firmware Version 3.17.0)?

Question 2: If I update the firmware, does the latest firmware contain/capture all prior updates, or do I need to update each successive update version in turn, oldest to newest?

Question 3: What Firmware Version number does Archer C9(US)_V1_180125 (most recent version) refer to? (For instance, 3.2X? 4.5X?)

Thank you

Question 1: No the UI for the admin console did not update to our Newer Teal background UI unitil Hardware version 4.

Question 2: Yes the Latest firmware is always built on top of the previous build.

Question 3: We actually base firmware off the build number in this case 180125 is the firmware number.
