Restore and missing packets/apps

last night my router died, corrupted SD card. So i replaced the card, burned the new image and uploaded the backup that i had.
i got Internet access but i am missing a lot of packets and apps


is there a way to fetch all the missing info?

if you know which packages you're missing, use https://firmware-selector.openwrt.org/ to add them, and generate a custom image.

i am not sure which ones i am missing. is there any other way?

make your router a DHCP client on the lan side, connect it to your existing lan, and pull the packages through it, instead of going via wan.

same can be done via the wan port, if you remove all the custom wan settings you seem to require.

the above obviously assumes there's a temp router in place.

Which protocol are you trying to configure?
