Replacing the firmware on the ASUS RT-AC66U

[ramblefish]

Hi. Please tell me how to go with the latest version of the firmware oreginalnoy 3.0.0.4.380.4005 for your 380.63.2 firmware? Do I need to be cleaned before flashing NVRAM? Router ASUS RT-AC66U revision B0.

RT-AC66U HW revision B is not officially supported.

Is B0 still unsupported?

I also have AC-66U HW B0, on the official page (https://github.com/RMerl/asuswrt-merlin/wiki/Supported-Devices) it is said that only B1 is not supported but it doesn't mention B0.

Does this mean that B0 is now supported?

Yes, nothing new with B0, it's supported as any past models.

Sorry for going back and forth here but in readme file from RT-AC66U_380.63_2.zip I can see the following.

Supported Devices
-----------------
Supported devices are:
* RT-N66U
* RT-AC66U (HW revision A1/A2 only)
....

It should be A1/A2/B0 then, correct?
Given the risks of bricking the router you can never be too careful...

I got the info on HW revision B0 less than 48 hours ago... What I wrote today is the most up-to-date info.
