Hi. I have an Archer C7 v1 I am not using and want to use it essentially as a switch connected LAN-LAN to my main router. I understand the issue with the 5ghz radio not supported - if I disable the radios and use it wired onkly can I flash dd-wrt? If so then any suggestion on as stable basic fw version? Don't need lots of bells and whistles - just want to connect a Wink hub and Arlo base station to it.

Thanks

Jay

You have to remove the 5ghz card or the router will be stuck in a boot loop
