Struggling with OpenWrt and Bintec rs353aw

Installing and Using OpenWrt
21

What I've done until now: I found LUCI on the pkgdata table https://openwrt.org/packages/pkgdata/luci and saw the dependencies. I picked the first one, libc, and found it here https://downloads.openwrt.org/releases/22.03.2/targets/lantiq/xrx200/packages/.

I copied the link and executed this command on my router: opkg install https://downloads.openwrt.org/releases/22.03.2/targets/lantiq/xrx200/packages/libc_1.2.3-4_mips_24kc.ipk but without success since it gives me an error.

Is what I'm doing correct? I need to install every dependency for the packages that I need?

I don't think I'm able to get this working. Now I would like to revert to the original firmware, maybe I'll be able to do that. Or else I'll have a paperweight :joy:

You compiled an image yourself and fail to add a package to it!? Did you ever read my comment and/or try what I suggested (include LuCI directly in the build)?

@armSeb states select packages, so you need to find if Luci is available in the @armSeb fork.

So I would go back through compiling or let us know what you want to do in Luci and I'm happy to give a quick terminal guide to UCI to do the same job as Luci.

If this is a problem I can download and compile @armSeb fork, and build this for you if required though I think you are more than capable of this.

@armSeb instructions are incomplete:

git clone https://github.com/armSeb/openwrt-RS353.git
git checkout openwrt-22.03
./scripts/feeds update -a
./scripts/feeds install -a
make menuconfig

This will pull in 22.03.2 LuCI from packages and you can then add it before running make.

I have built it and it works with LuCI

Hi,

To install packages (like luCi), first ensure that package repositories are enabled:

edit /etc/opkg/distfeeds.conf (i.e with vi) and check that there is repo URLs:

src/gz openwrt_core https://downloads.openwrt.org/releases/22.03-SNAPSHOT/targets/lantiq/xrx200/packages
src/gz openwrt_base https://downloads.openwrt.org/releases/22.03-SNAPSHOT/packages/mips_24kc/base
src/gz openwrt_luci https://downloads.openwrt.org/releases/22.03-SNAPSHOT/packages/mips_24kc/luci
src/gz openwrt_packages https://downloads.openwrt.org/releases/22.03-SNAPSHOT/packages/mips_24kc/packages
src/gz openwrt_routing https://downloads.openwrt.org/releases/22.03-SNAPSHOT/packages/mips_24kc/routing
src/gz openwrt_telephony https://downloads.openwrt.org/releases/22.03-SNAPSHOT/packages/mips_24kc/telephony

Then, update the package index:

opkg update

Then, you can search or install packages:

opkg install luci
