TPLink CPE510 setup does not save Hostname

Hi Everyone,
I am new to this stuff
i was able to flash my TPLINK
connecting a pc to it it give me an ip 192.168.1.8
so i am able to access it at 192.168.1.1:8080
but doing the setup i put my call sign and new password and Save  it  but it does not take it.  Even after a save if i reboot it get back to Nocall.
Is this a bug or i am doing something wrong.
i also have 2 WRT54GL flashed with  bbhn-3.1.0-wrt54g-2.4-squashfs.bin for testing

Thanks
Daniel

Please click the "Download
Please click the "Download support data" button at the bottom of the admin page and attach the file back here?  Do you have v1.0 or v1.1 hardware rev?

Yes, an important reminder
Glad that you found the cause.
This is an important reminder when configuring an AREDN node, to disable all WiFi and Ethernet interfaces - except for the one Ethernet interface you will use to connect to the node.
