Meaning exactly what?
I can't make it run
Have you read the whole readme file?
Have you read the whole of this thread?
Please can you follow the instructions in the readme file, including the section under "If you still have problems after checking the above".
Please provide as much information as possible: what router are you using, what firmware, what does the RUC log say etc etc. Without enough information there is simply no way of solving the problem.

Well, you have your warning. It may, or may not work with your switch. The decision, as they say, is yours. ;)

If you search this forum (and in the firmware documentation), you will see that the Aztech 600EW can be extremely problematic to upgrade. This is not because of the switch, but it just seems fiddly. I would be surprised if the switch caused you any trouble. And there are many people with 600EWs using RT firmwares on them. However, you have to proceed with great caution - and better have all the debricking tools.

What do you mean by proceed with great caution?

Hope for the best (everything fine), expect the worst (router is bricked).
