Archer AX6000 V1 Suspicious Online Firmware Update
Archer AX6000 V1 Suspicious Online Firmware Update

Hello community, I just received an online update request on my AX6000 V1 admin console. Before running it I decided to check it out on the official TP-Link website. There's no mention of it anywhere. Previous builds were 1.3.0, 1.3.1, 1.3.2, etc. Then all of a sudden it jumps to 1.4.2 and nothing that resembles 1.4.0 or 1.4.1.
Is this legit? Is my router hacked?
Here's a screen shot of the console (Advanced/System/Firmware Update):
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Is there any update on when 1.4.2 Build 20250603 rel.65464 for V1 will be available for users in the US?

It seems they got rid of all traces of 1.4.2 from their support web sites. When @terziyski found it on the global English site, I confirmed that it was there. But now it's gone and I canno t find it any more. @Brad999999 mentioned that it broke his access point mode and @Josech also had trouble. Maybe there were a lot more people that had problems with it so TP-Link pulled it from their website.
Hopefully, they will fix the problems and put out a working update soon. The thing that prevented me from doing the update was that it was "irreversible".
I hope you find this useful.
Btw, my router still shows an update link at the top of the admin page that is pretty close to the "Log Out" link. I almost pressed it by mistake several times!

Hello @GOATMAN42 & @link3r ,
For your questions, please refer to Archer AX6000 v1 Access Point Mode not working after firmware update to 1.4.2.
