Cant upgrade tp-link wr802n

Cant upgrade my new TL-WR802N
It's say's Error vide 4503
The uploadede file was not acceptet by the device.
Im trying with openwrt-18.06.8-ar71xx-tiny-tl-wr802n-v
What do i wrong

I think you mean initial flashing of openwrt over stock firmware?
This error message sounds like it wasn't from openwrt.

Which version of this device do you have?
V1, V2, V3 or V4?

TL-WR802N Installation instructions:

The only way to flash the image in TL-WR802N v4 is to use
tftp recovery mode in U-Boot:

  1. Configure PC with static IP 192.168.0.225/24 and tftp server.
  2. Rename "openwrt-ramips-mt76x8-tplink_tl-wr802n-v4-squashfs-tftp-recovery.bin"
    to "tp_recovery.bin" and place it in tftp server directory.
  3. Connect PC with the LAN port, press the reset button, power up
    the router and keep button pressed for around 10 seconds, until
    device starts downloading the file.
  4. Router will download file from server, write it to flash and reboot.

I cannot figur out, how to set Up my pc.
I'm not alloud to type in the ip 192.168.0.255/24

Only 192.168.0.255

And it's want a undermask ip :thinking:

I think i give up.

Thanks for help :pray::pray::pray:

Hej im stock tryed to type the ip but cant type the 24 at the end, it say's to long adress, also what is u-boot.
Sorry im not that good to it.

With a /24 subnet, 192.168.0.255 would be an invalid client address, as it is reserved as broadcast address; your subnet mask would be 255.255.255.0.
