[OpenWrt-Users] how to identify the version of a netgear WNDR3700?

one more question before i head out to to enjoy the sun -- a friend
just gave me a barely-used netgear WNDR3700, says i'm welcome to make
a total mess of it if i want, so i just want to verify the version
number. i don't have the box so that's not an option.

over at wikidevi.com, i can see two pages for the V1 and V2:

https://wikidevi.com/wiki/Netgear_WNDR3700v1
https://wikidevi.com/wiki/Netgear_WNDR3700v2

but both list the same FCC and Industry Canada IDs, which match what's
on the back of the router, so that doesn't help me distinguish. the
only difference from the openwrt ToH page is the amount of flash (8 vs
16), so does it really matter?

and i'm assuming that, for this router, i could grab images from
here:

https://downloads.openwrt.org/barrier_breaker/14.07-rc3/ar71xx/

anyway, off to enjoy the sun.

I believe the v1's don't have a version number on the label, but v2's do.

Hope this helps!
