Try clone your Mac address.some isp need Mac address to match their database.
I solved it! Seems I was missing a single quote character (') in the ifname (which I renamed it to eth0). I also deleted the last 4 lines.
Thanks!
came out 22.03.3

Anyone updated to 22.03.3? How's the router running? I had no problems since 22.03.02 and I dont really want some by doing the update.
I have just done a factory.bin flash on a device I reset to TP-Link original software and will also sysupgrade another router shortly. I'll report back in 2 days, but the factory.bin flash with a newly build image was successful and everything is working as expected.

I installed back the TP-Link OM FW, then, OpenWRT 22.03.3 with config backup, no problems yet, everything runs just the same.

The sys upgrade from 22.03.02 to 22.03.03 worked fine for me. Has been running fine for 48 hours

EDIMAX EW-7811UTC (8812AU) creates a random bug in OpenWRT if after loading it connect/disconnect several times within 5-30 minutes (sometimes more).
During such a bug, the ping does not work for 192.168.1.1, DHCP does not work.
Manually assigned IP sometimes works, but not for long time. Wireless connection to router Connect/Disconnect with a bug continues to work, but no internet.
Tested on 5GHZ, Windows10/11, Realtek drivers was updated.
I can now confirm that 22.03.3 still has the crash/reboot bug as described in Archer C6 on 22.03.2 crashes every ~3 days
Haven't experienced any crash like you said on my Archer C6 v3.2 US. I had a 13 days uptime on 22.03.2. Now I am on 22.03.3 and it has almost done 5 days uptime.
I just bought Archer A6 v3.2 and tried to install the OpenWrt factory image 22.03.3 and snapshot from Jan 14th for A6 and C6 without any luck.
You have managed to install OpenWrt on C6 v3.2 that has the same hardware as A6. Can you tell me what kind of magic tricks you have done to achieve this?
These questions should be directed at existing threads for the Archer A6, or in a new thread. Attempting to ask them here just causes confusion and risks nobody getting the right answers, either to the original question or yours.
Hi Guys, How did you do that?
I got the EU version 3.20, just installed from the OM Fw. Flashed the factory version and that's all. Use the FW Selector, search for "c6 v3.2" and download the file.
Sorry, my mistake. I have the Archer C6 V3.20 EU and I used the C6 V3 Firmware. It's running good, no problems since 22.03.2, now 22.03.3.
@RaresC95, How have you originally uploaded it to the router overwriting the original TP-Link firmware?
By firmware upgrade using the tp-link stock interface, but instead of the TP-Link FW file I used the OpenWRT. After 2-3 minutes and one restart you have OpenWRT. Be careful, OpenWRT changes the IP address to 192.168.1.1 instead of the default 192.168.0.1.
@RaresC95 I have tried that approach, I hoped that there is another way that would work for me 
I will continue to find the way.
Have u tried with TFTP? Instead of the TP-Link FW try with the OpenWRT using the correct name. U have to find out what FW the router is asking. Install TFTP server on your PC, and, with it open and the pc connected only to the router, press the reset button on the router, power it on, then keep it press for more 5 seconds, after that, release it and u should get some information on the server logs, u need the file name that the router is asking, once u got that, rename the OpenWRT file exactly the same, repet the procedure and maybe the router will take the FW file from the server and install it. I DO NOT GUARANTEE that is safe for the router.
This is actually a recovery procedure among U-Boot, but, the recovery page comes up only if the router failed to boot normally, so, you can use only TFTP.
For example if u brick the router u can use the TFTP method to fix it, but, you can "call" it even if it is working. The router will search for the FW file for, u will get a message on the server telling you that one client is searching for a certain file named "***", u need the name, then, repeat it and maybe, not surelt, it will install it safely.
U got one tutorial here:https://youtu.be/54PAS0gvW2k
It it used for recovery but also can force installation of certain firmwares.
