I developed a snapshot for my Sitecom router by adding WLR-4100v1002.dts in the "ramips" folder.
I tested it by renaming openwrt-ramips-mt7620-wlr-4100v1002-initramfs-kernel.bin to uImageWLR-5100v1002.bin and uploading it via tftp by selecting the option 1 on the boot menu:
1: System Load Linux to SDRAM via TFTP.
Please Input new ones /or Ctrl-C to discard
Input device IP (192.168.99.199) ==:192.168.99.199
Input server IP (192.168.99.8) ==:192.168.99.8
Input Linux Kernel filename (uImageWLR-5100v1002.bin) ==:uImageWLR-5100v1002.bin
I tried to burn it on flash using openwrt-ramips-mt7620-wlr-4100v1002-squashfs-factory.dlf but the factory web interface rejects it because of the board_name mismatch.
Therefore I used again the TFTP option of the boot menu after renaming openwrt-ramips-mt7620-wlr-4100v1002-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin to uImageWLR-5100v1002.bin
Even sysupgrade does not work smooth:
root@Iannicelli:~# sysupgrade -v /tmp/openwrt-ramips-mt7620-wlr-4100v1002-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin
Device sitecom,wlr-4100v1002 not supported by this image
Supported devices: wlr-4100v1002
Image check failed.

I guess the board_ name comes from the *.dts file:

I have 2 questions:
- How can I identify the board_name expected by Factory web interface?
- How can I set in my snapshot?
Please note: WLR-4100 board is like WLR-5100 with no 5GHz WiFi chip soldered on it. They may have the same firmware: uImageWLR-5100v1002.bin
