Consider usign only Entware-ng:

FFP is aging. The base system is unmaintained, and it dates from 2012. 3th party developers are doing a lot 
of work to update parts of it, but for beginners it's hard to gather the newest packages together, partly due to a missing package management.

Add more package sites using uwsiteloader.sh

wget http://wolf-u.li/u/441 -O /ffp/bin/uwsiteloader.sh
chmod a+x /ffp/bin/uwsiteloader.sh

Modify uwsiteloader.sh and add –no-check-certificates to wget invocation.

uwsiteloader.sh
slacker -U
slacker -a

Install:

• uli:screen
• uli:sudo
• uli:openvpn uli:lzo don't install, kernel 3.10. modules are missing in FFP uli repo

By default PATH is set by FFP, so to execute entware-ng use full path: /opt/bin/opkg or update PATH by sourcing . /opt/etc/profile.

It resides in /opt

opkg install syslog-ng

Problem: Zyxell is already using syslog-ng and /opt/var/log/Entware-ng.log shows: Starting syslog-ng… . already running.

I don't know where it is started. Simple solution is to add /opt/bin/killall /usr/sbin/syslog-ng into

#!/bin/sh

NOTE: opkg install psmisc

Use OpenVPN package from Entware-NG, because this repo contains necessary kernel 3.10.39 module tun

Add src/gz Mijzelf http://downloads.zyxel.nas-central.org/Users/Mijzelf/Entware-ng/binaries/armv7 into /opt/etc/opkg.conf

opkg update

opkg install net-tools-ifconfig profile-hook zyxel-modules-3.10.39 kmod openvpn-openssl

Edit /opt/etc/init.d/S20openvpn and:

• enable tun module loading: insmod /opt/lib/modules/3.10.39/kernel/drivers/net/tun.ko
• update config file namei

Test openvpn openvpn –config /opt/etc/openvpn/myconfig.conf

wget: invalid option – 'N'

Problem is in PATH. FFP installs full wget into /ffp/bin and changes default user PATH variable, but system still use one from /usr/sbin/wget Restart the router, login as admin, switch to root using su and then try to use wget.
