Support for TP-LINK RE305 V4

[igorv]

Does anyone know if TP-LINK RE305 V4 is supported by OpenWrt? I tried to flash the firmware, which supposedly works on TP-LINK RE305 V3 via the web interface, but it is not uploading on my device.

Is it possible to upload it by other means (tftpd or serial)?

Support for TP-LINK RE305 V3

I wouldn't recommend. The RE305 v3 stock firmware image (.bin) size is about ~7MB, while the RE305 v4 stock firmware image size is about ~2.5MB (less than a half). This might be an indication that they are different hardwares. I just ordered one RE305 to replace a RE200 (with the expectation I could run OpenWRT on it since OpenWRT on RE200 is broken). It will arrive next week, hopefully it will be a v3. If it is a v4 I will be very disappointed since there is no OpenWRT support to v4 yet. If…

Which could indicate a 4mb flash, that's too small for openwrt anyway.
