Thanks, it's under TL-WR740 indeed. I've checked other devices in the 
Makefile, there are a few
that have board names that don't align with the profile being used, 
like:

define Device/tl-wr842n-v1
    $(Device/tplink-8m)
    BOARDNAME := TL-MR3420
    DEVICE_PROFILE := TLWR842
    TPLINK_HWID := 0x08420001
endef

I will keep the boardname and change the DEVICE_PROFILE to 'TLWR740', 
see how that works out.
To be sure, is there anything else the DEVICE_PROFILE value steers, 
besides under which profile
the image would be built?

Cheers

Stijn
