Hardware Version: V2

Firmware Version: Archer VR400(EU)_V2_220126

At this post here it was signalled that the option "Interface Grouping" went missing. And that it was signalled to the R&D team. And it would take some time.
Post: Interface Grouping disappears after latest firmware upgrade - Home Network Community (tp-link.com)

The 2022 firmware AFTER that, 2 years after, STILL has the same issue.

The option "Interface Grouping" is still missing. Please explain why hide the option while it is still supported by the firmware?

Yes, applying old settings to the new firmware works.

I took the time to signal this problem because, really, the old firmware IS GONE (0.2.0) and now I have NO WAY of using this option anymore!

Can you please replace the newest firmware with the fix asap (not in two years, but maybe in a month)?
Also, please post the ORIGINAL FIRMWARE IMMEDIATELY, as i cannot use the router anymore as intended.

I am assuming this is true for all the new firmwares for the Archer line.

This unfortunately teaches users to NEVER upgrade.

EDIT:
There is a pletora of posts signalling this problem, sometimes not addressed and closed.
Please FIX THIS asap, as people is led to believe that maybe the router does not support this, while in reality IT DOES.
