Hi, I'm trying to install OpenWrt ona TP-Link repeater RE200 v3 using the repeater web ui, but is not working, the UI directly refuses to upload the image. A second after click the upgrade button the UI shows the error "Unable to upgrade."
Regarding the RE200:
**Firmware Version**: 1.1.3 Build 20210128 Rel. 60944(6582)
**Hardware Version**: RE200 v3.0
An i'm taking the OpenWrt version from:
Factory version from https://firmware-selector.openwrt.org/?version=21.02.0&target=ramips%2Fmt76x8&id=tplink_re200-v3
Also, looking a bit under the hood, when i press the Upgrade button I see the UI is doing a POST to:
http://192.168.10.245/cgi-bin/luci/;stok=d70afc039e6ddeb7498704b8b8ec51a7/admin/firmware?form=upgrade
And the response from the repeater is a json:
{"errorcode":"err_failed","success":false}
with no other relevant information on the response headers.
So, i have no clue about why this is happening. looks like the repeater is refusing to upload a "non official firmware", which is weird when the're using opwnwrt and their UI is even using luci...
I also tried with a couple of versions of openwrt, and also upgraded the stock firmware to the same version (the only one available on tp-link website) with a different zone, but after try the install again the result was the same.
Do anyone saw something similar or have any recommendation?
Thanks in advance!!
