The device is 8/64 flash/ram and won't be supported in future releases because of those limitations. I recommend buying something like the Archer AX23.

Dont get too pre-occupied, OEM supports it:

C6V4 << C6V3 , it is worse than previous HW revision. 8MB flash sets you with tough choices - Wifi XOR LuCI and so on.

Yes I have the Archer C6 Dual Band Wi-Fi Router model AC1200 v4

ram128

If they are going to release an openwrt firmware for this model

they're not.

and 8mb flash is a dead end.

Here somebody tore case apart and took on hacking it: https://github.com/hacefresko/TP-Link-Archer-C6-EU-re
Sad confirmation it is 8MB flash, in the most optimistic case even if it gets openwrt image today it is absolutely unlikely such image will extend useful life of the router over OEM warranty.

and on another side that has 16 mb of flash I don't have it

Are you sure your device is C6v4 and has 16/128? Can you provide proof?

Only way to prove the capacity, is to open it up, unless you can see it in the system log.

How can I see the system logs?

No idea, some devices will show it, some won't.

that doesn't help much :frowning:

v2 and 3 do have openwrt :roll_eyes:

there is no command to know the router flash

like I said, you might have to open it up.

He sent a message to the tp link technician to see if he could measure the flash memory but open it when he can.

I bought it for openwrt
