Basically, I purchased a WE4626-BKC from a manufacturer and I tried to do Opkg update
and I got the following:
Downloading http://downloads.lede-project.org/snapshots/targets/ramips/mt7628/packages/Packages.gz
*** Failed to download the package list from http://downloads.lede-project.org/snapshots/targets/ramips/mt7628/packages/Packages.gz

I had a check within distfeeds file and when I visit the link it's pointing to, they no longer exist.
Naturally I wanted to see the verison of OpenWRT running. Typing Uname -a
:
Linux LEDE 4.4.61 #0 Wed Jul 22 13:50:44 2020 mips GNU/Linux
Running cat /etc/banner
gives:
Reboot (SNAPSHOT, 17.01)
Finally running cat /proc/cpuinfo
gives:

Basically can someone help me with upgrading the firmware & can confirm for me whether that will fix the opkg update
issue?
NB: Am I right in thinking 17.01 is being depracated or it's reaching it EoL?
Thanks!
