Do you mean KRACKs vulnerability? You can check this article on the TP-Link website for more detail:

Sorry. What's the model number of your TP-Link device, please? We will confirm.

We confirmed with the engineers that Archer C7 v2 is NOT affected by the Krook exploit vulnerability in the link you attached. So no worries.

What about the TP Link Archer C6 V2 as that uses a Qualcomm chip and they were recently found to be susceptible to krøøk ?

Nope, routers with Qualcomm chips aren't affected.
