Right, seems like I should have waited for your response and maybe Nils
Kassube's one too (suggesting that
You need the *sysupgrade.bin file, not the *factory.bin if you have
already openwrt or lede installed - that would be this one:
<https://downloads.lede-project.org/releases/17.01.4/targets/ar71xx/generic/lede-17.01.4-ar71xx-generic-tl-wr1043nd-v4-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin>
)
Meanwhile I ran this: mtd -r write /tmp/openwrt-wrtsl54gs-squashfs.bin
firmware
and now my router is in a blink loop with no way to ssh in.
Does this mean the router is in failsafe mode or ready to be caught into
failsafe mode?
Thanks again all, really appreciating the responses here!
cheers,
C

Amazing, I am able to scp to the /tmp/ folder, for some probably

I've tried running the sysupgrade with the latest LEDE you pointed me
to Aaron, but I get a response of `invalid image type` then \n `Image
check 'platform_check_image' failed`
My bet is that the system doesn't think that its a V4. Login via LUCI
and look at "Model" on the main landing page at
http://192.168.1.1/cgi-bin/luci/ or run "less /etc/board.json" from
the command line (without the quotes) and see what it listed under
"model" and "id"
I got that same error yesterday when I tried to flash a 1043 V3 bin
onto a 1043 V2 WAP yesterday (was upgrading remotely and I forgot
which model it was).

On my test V2, sysupgrade takes either without a fuss.
