Hello Spidey,
Have you updated the package list first?
You can also find the desired package in the list of available packages as soon as you refresh the list.

Last but not least, as per community rules, please refrain from signing your posts.

Hi,
Yes I updated the package list first but when I enter "luci-app-openvpn openvpn-openssl" in " Download and Install package"

The sistem reply

Package luci-app-openvpn (git-19.170.32094-4d6d8bc-1) installed in root is up to date.
Unknown package 'openvpn-openssl'.
Collected errors:

* opkg_install_cmd: Cannot install package openvpn-openssl.

The same things if I try by SSH.

What is the output of the following command in SSH?
opkg list | grep openvpn | grep -v luci

Also keep in mind that your router is very low on cpu and flash and low on memory.
Adding openvpn to it might be too much for it.

It's got 8M flash and 64M ram. How much do you want?

You think if I buy it is better??

GL.iNET GL-MT300N-V2 Mini Travel Router, WiFi Converter, OpenWrt Pre-Installed, Repeater Bridge, 300Mbps High Performance, OpenVPN Client https://www.amazon.it/dp/B073TSK26W/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_3F5cDb7NHHHGY

CPU-wise they are the same. RAM and storage are double in the MT300, so it will server longer time, provided you are content with the speeds you'll achieve.

I need a router VPN for IPTV.

Tmomas, if I do opkg install luci after I do the Update this is the reply

root@OpenWrt:~# opkg install luci
Upgrading luci on root from git-19.020.41695-6f6641d-1 to git-19.170.32094-4d6d8bc-1...

Configuring luci.
root@OpenWrt:~#

What can I do now?

Try it again today at some point. If you didn't understand from the other topic that @tmomas posted, most likely something went wrong during the compiling process, hence the missing packet. It should be available after the next building cycle. If it is not, we'll notify the maintainers to have a look at it.

This is what's happen if I try by browser

And this if I try by ssh

schermata_ssh

What can I do?
Thanks

Sorry but the direct link for the package " openvpn-openssl" so I download it by ssh

root@OpenWrt:~# opkg download http://XXXXXX

and after I can install it?
Or I download it and after I update by FTP or SSH. I find this for you is ok?

http://noblepepper.com/repositories/0_4/packages/base/openvpn-openssl_2.3.6-5_ramips_24kec.ipk

Thanks

EDIT:

I try but the system reply this

root@OpenWrt:~# opkg install /tmp/openvpn-openssl_2.3.6-5_ramips_24kec.ipk
Unknown package 'openvpn-openssl'.

Try using the proper command to load the repositories, first:

opkg update
opkg install openvpn-openssl

I just try but always the same error.

I get the same error, seems to me that the mirrors of OpenWRT are damaged.

I set the mirror to http://mirror.kumi.systems/openwrt because the official downloads.openwrt.org doesn't load for me, I get timeouts constantly.

There may be a lot of downloading today, snapshots have had issues for ~36 hours on various platforms for various reasons.

I had timeouts loading the main downloads site too.
