Model: Archer A6  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

Apologies if this is a repeat of a previous thread

I don't know how to find the hardware version or firmware version but i bought the A6 a few months ago.

 I want to us the A6 router to extend the wifi range of my Spectrum furnished router.

I followed the procedure from tp-link chat but it didn't seem to work.

It entailed Enabling WDS Bridging and selecting the wifi network and security type.

I'm not sure what I did wrong.

Ideally I would like hardwire from spectrum router to A6 router.

Thanks is advance.
