Probably because it's been 3 months since the build, there seems to be a problem with the availability of the snapshot packages (e.g. not being able to install luci).
It's normal that snapshots do not come with LUCI installed. You'll have to ssh into the Hub and install it manually from there. Only stable versions ship with LUCI.
No, but if you have a specific image you'd like me to try - I have a sacrificial Hub on my desk ready to go ASAP. 
FYI
I believe you can use the firmware selector to pick the onhub
& under customise > Installed Packages you can add luci
so you can use it to download a snapshot image with luci
https://firmware-selector.openwrt.org/?version=SNAPSHOT&target=ipq806x%2Fchromium&id=tplink_onhub
i think snapshot is still using 5.15, need to do a selfbuild.
failed to boot when i tried, tplink has no uart pin, so i dont know what is going on,
in my test tplink onhub will be able to boot only if using kernel 5.10 or 5.15,
so far i tested with 5.4 and 6.1, it failed.
edit: by failed i mean, nothing happened, no led indicator, led is turned off completely.
correct I just sysupgraded to
SNAPSHOT (r23147-4b8b2f4f97)
2023-05-28T18:22:23.000000Z
& it's still on 5.15
6.1 is very early days
better to wait until they switch the snapshot
as when it is in a working state they will do this
Thank you to everyone who help make this project a huge success!!! I am loving openwrt because of the great community support from people like you!!!
I have a question about vlans on this tplink onhub.
For starters, @dadogroove I am now using your latest 23.05 image with CT drivers. Thank you it seems to work just fine but why do you include the "SWITCH" section under "NETWORKING" when I thought this devices is supposed to use only DSA to configure the vlans?
I am trying to use it as a "dumb access point" (as OneMarcFifty calls it) and for other devices I just bridge the physical ports, use DSA to assign VLANS and then attach wireless ssid to the interface. But for this Onhub, I am running into lots of problems because there is already VLAN1 and VLAN2 assigned under SWITCH. I don't know which physical devices to bridge and wether I can delete VLAN1 and VLAN2. WHen I try, it always breaks.
Does anyone have good luck creating wireless access to VLANs on this thing??? Even if we can't bridge, that will be fine for me. I can use 1 dedicated physical port to hold all the VLAN traffic. With the other port I can keep as spare or just disable, so it's fine.
Thank you very much!!!
@UniqueNoSpaces , My builds are very close to ACwifidudes with a few added extras. Do the stock 23.05 images work the way you'd like? I would imagine the switch setup is configured by the dts files for each individual device. I do not make any changes at that level.
Hey everyone! Thanks for all the hard work you've been doing with saving the onHubs.
I have been trying to get the tp link version up and running and I believe that I may have the ap booting from the usb stick.
I have the coloreds raonbow ring on the top but I cannot access 192.168.1.1.
When I attempted to ping I get a destination host unavailable or a request time out.
I've used the recovery drive to factory reset the onHub and tried but I cannot get any network signal.
My laptop can see that the port is live but I just can't interact with it.
I've set my ip to 192.168.1.2
The subnet is 255.255.255.0.
Abd the dns and gateway are 192.168.1.1.
I also turned off ipv6 for now.
Is there something small I'm missing? I was able to ping the newly reset onhub before openwrt but I can't ping the ap at all now.
an easy script to setup tplink onhub as dump AP
do change the password fields from password
and location wifi etc from a factory reset state

Hey doddys,
I have the same issue of being able to ping the onhub when I factory reset it, but I can't ping it once I load the OpenWRT on it.
When you do control+d do you then plug the keyboard out and swap in the usb stick quickly? Or do you have time?
I have the colorful lights but not access at all.
EDIT: Thanks everyone! Got one of them up and running.
Just need to convert the rest!
When you write the image to the USB drive with dd add 'bs=1M' to the command. This has helped me in the past.
Hi dadogroove, thank you. Yes the 23.05 stock image has the same menus options as yours: DSA and SWITCH.
It;s confusing because those are both 2 ways for setting the same thing: vlans for my wifi access points. Before I would just use to use DSA or SWITCH and it was worked fine but on this image i see both and no matter what combination i try i can never get wifi access to my vlans. I tried just changing just DSA, just SWITCH, and then both. no luck.
HAs anybody had success to make wifi access to VLANs on this onhub with v23.xx openwrt?
Thank you.
I have has instances where it seems the save profile from when sysupgrade with settings
seems to keep coming back
it's like it should be erase after use but if you factory reset
it still finds this info from last time you did it
I had to erase all of the flash as show somewhere in this thread & that solved the problem
I'm sure I have had to use the reset button a few times to get it to end up with the erased state
now I just don't upgrade with keeping setting
I was unable to repeat this when I did try tho
I also think this maybe due to it's current snapshot status
Does anyone know which version of Luci is safe to install on this?
Did you maybe try this? 
opkg update && opkg install luci
What it does:
opkg update - updates the package list
&& - if first command was successful continues to the next one
opkg install luci - Pretty self explanatory here I'd guess :slight_smile:
(downloads and installs 'luci' and packages needed by luci)
I have. Last time I ran that I had several errors so then I tried to install older versions had the same problems. I am going to give it a few more tries. Thanks for the reply. Have a great day.
I gave it another go and I got these errors.

when you are using snapshots
you have to install the programs just after you get the snapshot
the programs will be available for a while
so you must update to the current snapshot & then install programs
not install now & a month later
because the matching programs will be over written with new by then
That’s the other problem I have not been able to install anything. The snapshot says it’s read only then my after a short amount of time the internet quits working then after a reboot it’s completely inaccessible. I tried to use an older snapshot and I could not get it to work at all.
I'm experiencing the exact same issue using stock OpenWRT build and following @ryjelsum's instructions. @dadogroove Did you find a resolution for it? @ryjelsum did you get a chance to better document the bluetooth setup process? TIA guys!
