@David-TP 

 

Can TP-Link just open source the firmware packages for all of their deprecated models?

 

Which is MOST of them?

 

I spent a small fortune on a bunch of BE85's and you've essentially turned them into abandonware.

 

Why not just open source the firmware? Let the community drive.

 

I'm a dev and would LOVE to work on adding features, improving performance, enhancing security...etc etc.

 

But now, I've got a bunch of paper weights since your saying your previous top tier is essentially EOL soon.

 

Think about it.

Thanks for the clarification. In the meantime, I am working on unpacking the firmware to better understand how we can help to ensure your products can be supported by the community at large.
