Archer C7 v2 (CA) has wrong region firmware installed. How to fix?
This thread has been locked for further replies. You can start a new thread to share your ideas or ask questions.
My Archer c7 v2 (CA) router has the wrong region firmware installed.
It currently has version 3.15.3 Build 180114 Rel.39265n installed which I believe is the US version.
Everything is working ok but I want to fix this and upgrade to the latest CA firmware (Archer C7(CA)_V2_180305)
When I try, I get this error:
| Error code: 18005 |
| Upgrade unsuccessfully because the version of the upgraded file was incorrect. Please check the file name. |
The bottom of my router says Model: Archer C7(CA). How do I get the correct region firmware to install?

I cannot find the original firmware number on the device. What I was able to find is the following:
The model number is: Archer C7 (CA) v 2.0
Current Firmware: 3.15.3 Build 180114
I bought this device from Amazon at the time.

I have the same issue. I bought my router in the Philippines, but had some problems and when i i updated it, it loaded the EU version.
Now I am worried I might brick it if I download the firmware version from the Philippines.
Please advise what i should do.

Hi @Kevin_Z
Could you please send me the instructions as well? I am having the same problem with the Canada version.
1. The current firmware and its country version:
| Firmware Version: | 3.15.3 Build 180114 Rel.39265n |
2. The original firmware and its country version which is printed on the bottom label:
Archer C7 (CA) V2
Thank you

Hi,
I emailed you the instruction to update the firmware, please notice your inbox.
Any updates, please let me know.
Good day.

it was bought in Canada. the firmware has definitely been upgraded since then. maybe the wrong US version was installed by mistake? either way, i'd like to install the proper CA version but it wont let me, which is bizarre.
