How do I identify my RT-AC68U hardware version?

[Patrick0525]

I just got a re-certified T-mobile and installed Merlin 780.65. Can I SSH and then identify the hardware version?

Check the box label.

I have a T-Mobil unit but it was not "re-certified" and the box has the memory and CPU info listed.
You can also go into the gui and get CPU and memory then go here, first post, and find your specs.

With that information mine is either a A1 or A2.
that very long thread has about anything you ever wanted to know about your router. LOL

Nothing on the box. The original box is missing with the ASUS label. The CPU is 800MHz.

Check the router label then.

I am going to try this when I get home.

You can check your hardware revision by typing:
nvram get HW_ver

That information is not accurate at all, you will see the same info in different HW revisions, which btw also doesn't match any.
