It is wall or pole mountable, and rated for outdoor use. It can only be powered via PoE. Specifications: --------------- * CPU: Qualcomm IPQ6018 Quad core Cortex-A53 * RAM: 512 MB * Storage: ESMT PSR1GA30DT 128MB NAND * Ethernet: * Gigabit RJ45 port with PoE input * WLAN: * 2.4GHz/5GHz * LEDs: * Multi-color System LED (Green/Amber) * Buttons: * 1x Reset * UART: 4-pin unpopulated header * 1.8 V level, Pinout 1 - TX, 2 - RX, 3 - GND, 4 - 1.8V Installation: ============= Web UI method ------------- Set up the device using the vendor's web UI. After that go to Management->SSH and enable the "SSH Login" checkbox. Select "Save". The connect to the machine via SSH: ssh -o hostkeyalgorithms=ssh-rsa <ip_of_device> Disable signature verification: cliclientd stopcs Rename the "-web-ui-factory" image to something less than 63 characters, maintaining the ".bin" suffix. * Go to System -> Firmware Update. * Under "New Firmware File", click "Browse" and select the image * Select "Update" and confirm by clicking "OK". If the update fails, the web UI should show an error message. Otherwise, the device should reboot into OpenWRT. TFTP method ----------- To flash via tftp, first place the initramfs image on the TFTP server. setenv serverip <ip of tftp server> setenv ipaddr <ip in same subnet as tftp server> tftpboot tplink_eap610-outdoor-initramfs-uImage.itb bootm This should boot OpenWRT. Once booted, flash the sysupgrade.bin image using either luci or the commandline. The tplink2022 image format ============================ The vendor images of this device are packaged in a format that does not match any previous tplink formats. In order for flashing to work from the vendor's web UI, firmware updates need to be packaged in this format. The `tplink-mkimage-2022.py` is provided for this purpose. This script can also analyze vendor images, and extract the required "support" string. This string is checked by the vendor firmware, and images with a missing or incorrect string are rejected.
