A20 version differences? V1 and V3 with different firmware even.

Model: Archer A20  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: V1

I was looking to see if there was new F/W for my V1 A20. I noticed V3 version showing as the default.

 

Both have the same build date it seems?

 

What is the difference in the 2 versions that they require different f/w?

 

Just curious?

I did some more looking at the different Specifications some pages?

 

V1 appears to have a 1.8Ghz Dual core CPU. https://www.tp-link.com/us/home-networking/wifi-router/archer-a20/v1/

V3 appears to have a 1.8Ghz Quad core CPU: https://www.tp-link.com/us/home-networking/wifi-router/archer-a20/v3/

 

However, the V1 seems to also be listed as a Quad core, https://static.tp-link.com/2019/201903/20190319/Archer%20A20(US)1.0_Datasheet.pdf

 

I'm wondering though if that last link is really for the V3? Doesn't seem you can buy the V1 anymore either?

 

My V1 box and reviews of the V1 I can find all state it has a Quad core?

Thank you for pointing this out.  I will work with the team to get the data verified and corrected.
