I bought the same Model TP-Link W8961ND 2 days ago. It had the Proper Firmware.

You should go for replacement.

looks like someone sold you an oem product(manufactured by one company for another company & putting its brand on product like those airtel,reliance 3g modems all manufactured by huawei).next time buy tp-link products only from reputed online shops like flipkart,primeabgb,deltapage etc.
