Any update on this?

From reading the thread, it appears the update we're wating on, is from you.

  • Are you saying that the LEDE 17.01.5 packages worked?
  • Does it work in 18.06.1?

Yah but no idea if it will work on 18.06.1. You can give it a try.

Login via ssh and use the following commands

cd /tmp
wget http://downloads.lede-project.org/releases/17.01.5/packages/mipsel_24kc/packages/bmon_4.0-1_mipsel_24kc.ipk

LOL...

I did, see Post No. 7

That's why I asked:

If you're having an issue, why don't you upgrade, instead of messing with the repository?

After all 18.06.1 was a service release. Perhaps it was fixed.
