Same old Z2M configs With Sonoff Dongle P

Folks - I’m trying to connect Sonoff Dongle P with a new install of HA.

I’ve done everything-
Flashed with router firmware using python
Added to USB 2.0 port on my laptop (running HAOS)
Distanced from other WiFi etc
Installed Z2M
Configured with/without MQTT User
Added/Removed MQTT server IP/port
Added Serial: port: /dev/ttyusb and also tried with /dev/id …
It just wouldn’t connect.

One thing I note is ZHA automatically tries to ask me to configure it at every restart but I just click ignore there. Logs are below. I have no idea what to do to get this going. ANY HELP appreciated. The issue seems to be that the dongle just won’t connect.

You have flashed the wrong firmware. You want co-ordinator not router.
