Good Morning Sirs, after trying to install openwrt-23.05.0-ipq807x-generic-edgecore\_eap102-squashfs-factory.ubi following Matthew Hagan procedure, I got the device looping in these errors ```plaintext [691.846287] hsl_phy_phydev_get[798]:ERROR:phy_addr 3 phydev is NULL [692.874955] hsl_phy_phydev_get[798]:ERROR:phy_addr 0 phydev is NULL [692.874992] hsl_phy_phydev_get[798]:ERROR:phy_addr 1 phydev is NULL [692.880024] hsl_phy_phydev_get[798]:ERROR:phy_addr 2 phydev is NULL [692.886289] hsl_phy_phydev_get[798]:ERROR:phy_addr 3 phydev is NULL ``` Any suggestions? Thanks in advance Tony ---

Please try the snapshot build. There are a few fixes regarding ssdk phydev enumeration in the snapshot. ---

Hi Kirdes, if you mean for snapshot the one you can find here: [edge-core/edge-core\_eap102\_1](https://openwrt.org/toh/hwdata/edge-core/edge-core_eap102_1) Already done as wrote in the first post. Thank you ---

Thnx kirdes, but it's impossible to do sysupgrade with the error in loop. How could I upload it? Tnx again Antonio ---

the factory image is the right one, @kirdes probably posted the wrong link [https://downloads.openwrt.org/snapshots/targets/ipq807x/generic/](https://downloads.openwrt.org/snapshots/targets/ipq807x/generic/) ---

Yeah sorry I thought you already installed OpenWRT. BTW you can also open a ssh session to the running initramfs and do the install of the factory image. The log spam is only present in the serial connection. Or use the snapshot initramfs image ---

Tnx Kirdes, already tried to open an ssh session but , although I can see ip address (from serial monitor) assigned on br-lan (192.168.1.1) , the interface is not pingable and ssh fails. ---

Please describe exactly what are you doing. Do you bootm an initramfs image or do you cp the factory.ubi image via tftp and flash that in u-boot (as described in the commit message)? Please try first to tftpboot the snapshot initramfs image and boot that (bootm) And check if the log spam is fixed or still there. ---

I copy the factory.ubi image via tftp and flash it in u-boot. Where I can find the snapshot image (I found only factory.ubi e update.bin)? Thank you ---

images will be the same, but snapshots are bleeding edge, you've already been given the link. ---
