The Archer C7v2 is supported and is a very popular router model on DD-WRT.

Kernel-Panic has provided you all the links to find the firmware, and how to watch for new releases of firmware.

Based on your IP I see you are in Spain so you will need to use the "global" version of the firmware which always will have the filename: tplink_archer-c7-v2.bin

There will be two other file names in the folder, US and IL.
US is intended for routers in the USA and IL is for Isreal.

For the first time flashing going from stock TP-Link to DD-WRT you must use the "factory-to-ddwrt" file. For future upgrades DD-WRT- to -DD-wrt you will use the first filename I posted above. If you receive an error using the factory-to-dd-wrt firmware file, please send me a PM and I will guide you how to downgrade the stock firmware to an older version which will allow an update to dd-wrt, but this shouldn't be necessary on newer builds to stock firmware. Only very old stock firmware had this issue. See the wiki link above in Kernel-Panic's post.

Next time, please click on all the links given. They have all the information you need. I will now lock this topic.
