after i open sysupgrade and pres update(https://downloads.openwrt.org/releases/24.10.0/targets/ath79/mikrotik/openwrt-24.10.0-ath79-mikrotik-mikrotik_routerboard-wap-2nd-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin), my devise is reboot and go to recovery mode,
wireshark show BOOTP pakets, devise search dhcp, after serch tftp server

how to update my AP?
The device is mounted on a high mast and I would not like to remove it again.

if you were already running openwrt, why did you flash the initramfs ?

3

if i flash [openwrt-24.10.0-ath79-mikrotik-mikrotik_routerboard-wap-2nd-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin] and i have a permanetly rebooted device,

i flash kernel over tftp,

or use device without squashfs-sysupgrade?

From what version you updated?

5

update from 23.хх

6

All config is lost, now netboot 23.05.5 kernel+initramfs and from there sysupgrade to 23.05.5
Then sysupgrade to 24.10.0.

i try new model

  1. start AP
  2. config ip and run tftpd64
  3. upload kernel 24.10(we load FW to memory)
  4. connect to 192.168.1.1 and load 24.10 kernel to /tmp
  5. sysupgrade -F /tmp/openwrt.bin
    device is go to reoobot mode an reliase BOOTP and need TFTP server

No idea what you are flashing, such checksum does not match any openwrt file.
Use chrome/ium or firefox in private mode to download files and obviously check the checksum in sysupgrade screen

11

or maybe use wget or curl (browser could be wonky)

Start with comparing checksums - copy in one page search in other.
