ER707-M2 Displaying incorrect version number
This thread has been locked for further replies. You can start a new thread to share your ideas or ask questions.
I have several ER707-M2 devices and all of them have a printed label on them that states the version as 1.6
However, the web page incorrectly displays the version number as 1.0
This is extremely misleading and can result in somebody downloading the wrong firmware that doesn't match the real hardware version.
Am I supposed to update the firmware based on what the printed label states OR based on what the web page displays?
Thanks

If you are downloading the firmware from the official website, you might see this explanation which might answer your question.

Unfortunately that doesn't help resolve the problem. I still have the same problem. Maybe the following is a clue about what's wrong.
When I visit the tp-link support download page for the ER707-M2 and set the hardware version to v1.16 for the device, it shows the firmware "ER707-M2(UN)_V1.6_1.2.1 Build 20240109" is available to download (Please NOTE that the web page says V1.16, which is what I want).
However, when I press the download button, the filename for the file is DIFFERENT. It states "ER707-M2(UN)_V1_1.2.1 Build 20240109.zip" (Please notice that the file it tries to download is V1 and not V1.6).
I downloaded this file thinking it pertained to my router and expected it to be for v1.6 of the hardware. Looks like something is wrong with the web page download link.
Hi @zookeeper
Which means the firmware applies to. Guess why this line was bold and written on the upgrade manual?
