I've inatalled trunk on my wr1043nd and now there's no web II.
How to enable it?

opkg update
opkg install luci
/etc/init.d/uhttpd enable
/etc/init.d/uhttpd start

... this means that I need to bring it online manually.
Which is why I'm trying to enable the web UI ...

there in no web UI , you must install it first

There's also no PPPOE. Which will make it a little bit harder then expected.
Any hint?

OK. I got it.

uci set network.wan.proto=pppoe
uci set network.wan.username=username
uci set network.wan.password=password
uci commit
/etc/init.d/network restart

Just a question.
Why on earth trunk has the web UI disabled by default?

...download needed packages with PC , transfer them to router /tmp , and install from there ?

I need to have HTTPS web UI on wan.
I installed uhttpd-mod-tls but cannot see any option in the web UI.

Probably to ward off non-knowledgeable users.

Been that way for years... but hey, might as well build it yourself if you want to go trunk. That's how I do it.

uqbar: uhttpd on https documentation is all here. http://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/uci/uhttpd

Can't guide you through it, I have no clue.

1) Change the listen_http list to the LAN IP address (uci get network.lan.ipaddr, e. g. 192.168.1.1:80). Binds HTTP access only to LAN network. HTTPS access is accessible on LAN and WAN.
/etc/config/uhttpd

config 'uhttpd' 'main'

    # HTTP listen addresses, multiple allowed
    list 'listen_http'    '192.168.1.1:80'
#    list 'listen_http'    '[::]:80'

    # HTTPS listen addresses, multiple allowed
    list 'listen_https'    '0.0.0.0:443'
#    list 'listen_https'    '[::]:443'
[..]

2) Add the Web server rule in the firewall configuration to open port 443/TCP on the router.
/etc/config/firewall

[..]
config 'rule'
        option '_name'        'Web server (HTTPS)'
        option 'src'          'wan'
        option 'dest_port'    '443'
        option 'target'       'ACCEPT'
        option 'proto'        'tcp'

3) restart the uHTTPd and the firewall

/etc/init.d/uhttpd restart
/etc/init.d/firewall restart

4) Test from outside of your LAN.

Thanks.
I think I need to fix the firewall part with port 443, though.

Right. In the firewall rule. I edited my post.

In the firewall configuration I read:

config 'rule'
        option 'src' 'wan'
        option 'proto' 'udp'
        option 'dest_port' '68'
        option 'target' 'ACCEPT'
        option 'family' 'ipv4'

Which should be BBOTP client from WAN.
Does this make any sense?

/etc/config/uhttpd was already OK.
Instead I preferred the web UI way and used the Firewall/Redirects to redirect wan:443 to lan:443.
Anyway, a more friendly web UI (a-la DD_WRT) will help a lot.
