K4TTZ, Did you ever get this figured out ? I just picked up one of these and it seems to be the same version as what you have, the v2.8 hardware. I'm going to take a run at it and see if it'll boot with the v2 firmware.
Enable SSH on the device and connect to it with SSH
Please provide the output from
cat /dev/mtdblock2 | grep CPE210
Additionally provide the output from
dmesg
I tried to load the CPE210 V2 Latest Stable, and that seems to work I have not tested it with an RF peer yet. But it hands out DHCP ok. Looks good so far.
Based on the information provided I see no reason why it will not work as long as you do not load an older version of the software on the device.
Stick to the latest Stable Release or the Latest Nightly Builds.

Here's the mtd info, and I have attached the dmesg
$ cat /dev/mtdblock2 | grep CPE210
CPE210(TP-LINK|US|N300-2|55530000):2.0
