Hi there. I've manually flashed OpenWrt v23.05.4 using serial/UART onto the TP-Link EX220 v1, and I think I used a minimal build without kmod-mt7621 (or kmod-mediatek) switch support, so OpenWrt falls back to CPU routing — not real hardware switching. Problem is, going to software and searching for "switch-media" or "mt7621" or "mediatek" gets me nothing (with the exception of a package called kmod-mt7621-qtn-rgmii, which isn't what I need); Anyway, next I investigated my options and I got to the OpenWRT page with the bin & sysupgrade files (https://firmware-selector.openwrt.org/?version=23.05.4&target=ramips%2Fmt7621&id=tplink_ex220-v1), which got me wondering: since I already have it running on the router and the Sysupgrade image file can be used with LuCI, would it be safe to jump from 23.05.4 straight to sysupgrade v24.10.1? Will that version contain the switch driver I need?
What makes you think you need a kmod-mt7621 ?
Have you tried the hw and/or sw offloading settings ?
What problem are you trying to solve?
Yes, you should be able to sysupgrade to 24.10.1.
