Upgrade firmware ER706W failed
I recently installed an ER706W router with fiber optic and WiFi functionality. I am very happy with the device, but am having a problem with the upgrade from firmware 1.0.0 to 1.0.2. Both stand-alone and under Omada, the firmware upgrade gives an error message without any additional information.
Does anyone have an idea or better yet performed a successful update?
Unfortunately I cannot yet choose the right model, it is quite worrying how poorly TP-Link keeps the information about new models in order.

I just want to let everyone know that my router was successfully upgraded to the version 1.0.2. It took almost 2 hours remote intervention of the support engineer. Then I got a special firmware version that healed my router, so it started to upgrade it’s firmware through a normal process (by clicking on the link to the new firmware version in the Omada controller Devices page).

@JackLuk That's good news. Thank you for your effort. Not much to do with falty Java versions on PC's i guess. Now we just wait for the proper update-file

Hello @delpit and other community members,
For the issue that the ER706W failed to upgrade from v1.0.0 firmware to v1.0.1 or v1.0.2 firmware, please try upgrading to the following transition firmware manually first, then you should be able to upgrade to the v1.0.1 or later firmware.
ER706W_V1_1.0.0_Build 20230712 (Beta)
Notes:
(1) Please be sure you have read the Beta Test Agreement before upgrading the Beta firmware!
(2) You may refer to the following guide to manually upgrade your ER706W. How to Upgrade/Downgrade Omada Gateways
(3) After you upgrade the above firmware, you should be able to upgrade to the v1.0.1 or later firmware.
