Can you advise how this is done pls.

Thank you for response. Can you advise steps pls.
I have putty ssh client open.

I use Linux, "scp" is just there. Look for some Windows "scp" binary.
I don't know if Putty can transfer files.

Open Nautilus, last item on the left should be "Connect to server", type:

or

It just don't work for me, but used to work before I "downgrade" to Ubuntu 14.04
Also may work:
File > Connect to server
Ctrl-L Open a location bar where you can write directly.

If you didn't setup a password in your router, then go backwards:

Please remember "sftp" requires installing an extra package.

1. download pscp.exe from putty web page to the same folder where you have putty
2. pscp file.txt root@192.168.1.1:/tmp/

edit: I don't know this sure, but you may have problems with windows CRLF line endings in your script, openwrt needs only CR, so it is better to convert the file to linux format prior to transfer. I use pspad text editor for creating linux scripts, you can define code page and linux/windows/mac line endings and you can use it to convert your script too with one click, it is small, free editor with syntax highlighting, you will like it
