I'm using an Ikea KOPPLA (204.150.27) which provides 17W. It's powering two v3 probes and one v4 probe. The other probes work well, so i don't think that the power supply is causing this. What i meant was, that maybe some USB sticks are to slow and thus not able to perform writing of a big chunk of data in the expected time, and therefore the USB flash/filesystem is considered broken? Can you tell the exact cause for the "Flash drive filesystem corrupted"-tag is? What triggers this? I am aware that USB 3.0 is backwards compatible, but since USB 3.0 sticks are faster, maybe it makes sense to stick with them (hehe), to ensure that at least the full USB 2.0 potential is used.

If the unit receives just enough power to boot the base TP-Link, but not to power the USB stick this may trigger these problems. Would you be able to boot the unit with a different power supply (try 5W at the least or 10W), to see if this makes a difference? Speed shouldn’t be much of an issue, USB to my knowledge is backwards compatible.

It's unlikely, since i tried multiple dongles. Could it be possible, that not the flash storage is broken, but the speed of the USB dongles is too low? All dongles I tried were USB 2.0, not 3.0, since the TP-Link TL-MR3020 is not USB 3.0 capable anyway. But maybe USB 3.0 is a better choice? What do you think?
