Image metadata not found for link from ToH

Installing and Using OpenWrt
1

Using an image found on ToH, http://downloads.openwrt.org/releases/21.02.1/targets/ramips/mt7621/openwrt-21.02.1-ramips-mt7621-tplink_re650-v1-squashfs-factory.bin

I get an Image metadata not found warning.

Is this indicative of a problem in the automated build?

  • Are you installing from factory?
  • Are you performing a sysupgrade?

Yes, from factory 21.02.0, and upgrading via LUCI

When upgrading OpenWrt, use the sysupgrade firmware instead.

Thanks. For some reason it took me a while to figure out that you weren't making a distinction between Luci sysupgrade and CLI sysupgrade, but rather that I had accidentally downloaded the factory firmware rather than the sysupgrade firmware.
