  • Q: I installed a software package, how do I configure it?
  • A: After the installation of a package, a related configuration page is generated somewhere in the WebUI, depending on the packages purpose. Information on where to find each page can be found in the Available packages section of this Wiki page and related configuration guides can be found in the See also section below.

  • Q: The package that I want isn't on the list. Can I install it anyway?
  • A: Depends on what you need specifically. More packages can be downloaded using the opkg package manager. It is a command-line utility used to download software from special online repositories.
    Before using opkg you should first update the list of available packages by executing this command:
    opkg update
    To see a list of available packages, use this command:
    opkg list
    To install a package, use this syntax:
    opkg install <PACKAGE_NAME>
