Model: Archer A9  
Hardware Version: V6
Firmware Version: unknown

Can anyone tell me if I can update the latest firmware for the Archer A9 AC1900 MU-MIMO Gigabit Router wirelessly?  Support keeps sending me to their site that says use an ethernet cable...which my laptop does not have.

 

Thanks

I went to the TP Link website for support for A9 (US) 

 

https://www.tp-link.com/us/support/download/archer-a9/#Firmware

 

 

I found this statement:

 

"To avoid wireless disconnect issue during firmware upgrade process, it's recommended to upload firmware with wired connection unless there is no LAN/Ethernet port on your TP-Link device."

 

The big issue is you do not want it to interrupt the update as it can brick your router so be sure you have a strong WIFI signal when you do this.
