Model: VX420-G2h  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version: 2.0.0 0.9 v603c.0 Build 221208 Rel.8567n

I just bought a 2nd hand VX420-G2v, without understanding that it was a TPG special.

 

I don't use the DSL - this is to be a router connected to the NBN.

 

I see there is no firmware for this device on the TP-LINK website. I've noticed that sometimes TP-LINK creates a "middle" firmware e.g. EU to use in AU?

 

Is there a TP-LINK or alternative firmware I can install on this device to replace the TPG firmware?

Due to the special nature of the firmware on your device, we are afraid that we cannot provide you with the firmware either.
