Bonjour,

je ne suis pas très calé dans l'installation matérielle. Ma question est : puis-je effectuer la mise à jour de mon routeur en version 4 vers la version 7 ? Merci pour votre aide. Bien cordialement.

Nope, you cannot. If the hardware version of the router is V4, you can only install the firmware for version 4, it's not allowed to install firmware other than that.
