Hello!

I have TP-LINK TL-WR740N  v. 2.1
I am looking for firmware for my hardware version.

Here h_tt_ps://downloads.openwrt.org/chaos_calmer/15.05.1/ar71xx/generic/ I found program for v.1, 3, 4.

But my hardware version is 2.


For TP-LINK TL-WR741N I found firmware for v.2.
But this is for WR741N not for TL-WR740N. What should I do?

Is it possible to use firmware for TL-WR741N v.2 for my TP-LINK TL-WR740N v.2 ?
As I know TL-WR740N and TP-LINK TL-WR741N differ only by antenna.

There seem to be no differences in SoC or Wifi Chip between V1 and V2, so it seems safe to use V1 firmware.

The discussion might have continued from here.
