Hi guys,

 

I had a couple of RE190. I suspect one is V4 and other V5, because they have different firmware versions and they cannot be updated at the same version, but I am not sure.

 

Does anyone know how the version of RE190 can be showed? Any special MAC pattern maybe? They are really alike from the outside and I would not like opening them to check on the chips.

 

Further than that, I would be interested on getting the differences between these two models. I suspect it could be some minor hardware update in the V5, but who knows.

 

Thanks in advance!

I am feeling idiot right know, I will respond to my self: TPlink App, click on one of my devices, then click in the device icon at the top and hardware/firmware details will pop up.

 

And one is V4 and the other V5 indeed. Same seller, same price and only a few months of difference in the order.

 

I will keep trying to find out the differences between v4 and v5 anyway.

 

 

Regards.

There should be a sticker on the RE bottom, where the HW version is printed - check this guide.

If there isn't you can find that here:

 

 

There is probably only a minor HW change on the v5.
