TL-WA855RE (UK version) firmware update - checksum error
TL-WA855RE (UK version) firmware update - checksum error

Model : TL-WA855RE

Hardware Version : UK Version

Firmware Version : 1.0

ISP :

Been using the above unit for a couple of years but only noticing the need to update firmware yesterday. Downloaded the UK versions of the updates dated February 2, 2017, November 11, 2017, and December 18, 2017. Unzipped to separate directories. All 3 versions gave the same "Checksum error" message almost immediately after I hit the "Upgrade" button. Ran out of options and ideas and the unit seems to be still on version (UK) 1.0? It has constant issues with connections.

Please help.

these FW is working for V2, I think the device you has is V1. So it cannot upgrade

Hi, @Eprst 

 

I found that the current firmware version is 150908, while I cannot find it on the firmware tab on the official website.

 

May I know where did you buy this extender? Meanwhile, could you please take a picture of the bottom label and send to us. 

 

What I think that affects the firmware upgrading is the current firmware version. 

 

Good day.
