Hi! Helping out a friend to connect with the TP Link router mentioned above. I updated the TP-Link firmware but saw it's from 2015. I am thinking to install DDWRT but I see "DD-WRT currently only supports v1" on the specific hardware page. Now TP-Link says all v1.x are v1 and I see people here being successfully using DDWRT on v1.5 but some not (old posts though). So is it safe to say that the latest DDWRT build works on that router? Thank you for your help.

use 2020's 44715 and the firmware applies to all v1.x versions: ftp://ftp.dd-wrt.com/betas/2020/11-03-2020-r44715/tplink_tl-wdr3600v1/ just note that there is a USA version of the firmware and global version if you live outside the USA so choose the right file. first time flash from stock firmware uses the factory-to-ddwrt file. upgrading once on dd-wrt you use the webflash file._________________FORUM RULES TIPS/TRICKS: Best QCA Wifi Settings | Latency tricks | QoS Port priority | NEVER USE MU-MIMO | Why to NOT use MU-MIMO | Max Wifi Pwr by Country | Linux Wifi Pwr | AC MCS & AX MCS | QCA 5Ghz chnls to use | WIFI Freq WIKI | TFTP R7800 | Don't buy AX | IPERF3 How-To [R9000]58381 nightly (Main Router) [EA8500]43192 & 45493 (2xOffsite) [R7800] resting [WDR3600]BS 44715 (Offsite) [A7v5]BS 43038 (Offsite+spare napping)

Secondary question: there are 2 files, one is factory-to-ddwrt.bin and the other is tl-wdr3600-webflash.bin What is the difference? Looking at the specific pages for installation I couldn't figure that out. Thank you.
