    Is it then safe to assume that 3rd party firmwares are still working for R7000 units bought today?

      Best places would be there 3rd party forums for sure. I presume they would be active and support help would be seen there.

        I'll await a response on this forum for a few more days and then create a thread on the other forums if needed, thanks :)

         

        But as there's only the one revision of the R7000 I assume they work just fine. Both projects have a page where the R7000 is listed as supported with no mention of version - so I assume that's because there's only the single revision and it's still supported.
