Hi
I'am an absolute newie, i got an TPL-Link MR3040 of course, because new, it is version 2.2.
I tried to follow the wiki to get openwrt running on the device.
I could install the ..factory.bin file.

I could telnet and change the root password and I could ssh my device using my password.
I could also change the IP, gateway and dns in (/etc/confif/network)
And finall, I could make a firmwareupdate
with: http://downloads.openwrt.org/snapshots/ … pgrade.bin
No my MR3040 is now directly connected to my router and I can access it over my supplied IP (With other words, I have access to the device, which has access to the internet (opkg update, ... works).

but when I try to install luci I get the error:
root@OpenWrt:/tmp# opkg install luci
Unknown package 'luci'.
Collected errors:
* opkg_install_cmd: Cannot install package luci.
root@OpenWrt:/tmp#

As far as I understood, luci should be in the first sysupdate package, but it isn't.

My questionss:
Is it realy missing or did I missunderstood something?
If yes, when is an complete update available.
If no, is there an other way to install luci

I found an explination for luci in: http://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/howto/luci.essentials
But also here, many packages are not included in http://downloads.openwrt.org/attitude_a … /packages/

thanks for your hottly expected answer
lieni

try:

opkg update
opkg install luci

Sorry, I didn' mentioned, but I did it before:

Here you see, what I get.

root@OpenWrt:~# opkg update

thanks a lot, I'll wait some days

For them who are interessted in my project:
I want a microcontroller (teensy3.1 arduino compatible) connect to my tl-mt3040, which operates as a WIFI Router. So I can connect to it via my iphone and send flight-data from my cameradrone (dji-phantom vision) to my iphone.
I'll install an additional antenna, so that a range of 100m can be established.

The discussion might have continued from here.
