Model: Archer C80

Hardware Version: V1

Firmware Version: 1.10.0 Build 210716 Rel.51301n(4555)

Hello, I've just received my Archer C80 today and I'm totally happy with the purchase.
It seems that a little problem appeared when I try to add port forwarding and exactly in the Internal Port, it said Invalid format, per example : 7000-8000

I tried all the method in the support link of tp-link https://www.tp-link.com/en/support/faq/1379/ per example : If you need to input a port range xx-xx when configuring the port forwarding, please leave the internal port empty. It said : not allow to be empty

Screenshots : Invalid format https://imgur.com/aFpPRZg / not allow to be empty https://imgur.com/jWzwcdi
Hopefully you can solve my problem.
Thank you!

Thank you @woozle and @terziyski for the quick answer. Apologize for the misleading information I posted in the previous thread that I thought the latest official firmware of Archer C80 has allowed opening a range of ports, however, I was wrong, that was not included in the official release. I have opened a new thread to provide a temporary solution now, below is the new thread:

How to open a range of ports on Archer C80

Hello @Tommy007, please check the above thread that I just opened, you can install the beta firmware and confirm if you can open a range of ports on your Archer C80.

@Tommy007

Seems to be the same as discussed in another thread for the Archer C64. Forwarding of port ranges is apparently not supported.
