Most likely TFTP will work: https://openwrt.org/toh/tp-link/archer-c5-c7-wdr7500#tftp_recovery_de-bricking

The issue is just finding the correct name for the file. You need a TFTP server software on your computer (I use TFTP32/TFTP64). Then download the TP-Link firmware. On your computer set a static IP of 192.168.0.66. Then open TFTP32 and in the Server tab select the interface (192.168.0.66). Then click the browse button and point it at an empty folder somewhere (I use C:/tftp). Now follow the steps posted in the link above. It will try and grab the file. It will not find it but it will log the filename it was looking for in TFTP32. Rename the TP-Link file to that and retry the procedure.

The v4 will reject a factory stock image through recovery with dd-wrt installed unless something has changed recently.

There's already a thread detailing steps to revert to stock just search for it.
