= Installing packages =

One of OpenWrt's key features is being able to install extra software packages. For example, you can install a VPN server on the router, or add SFTP support to the SSH server.

On the Luci web interface go to "System","Software", and click "Update lists...". You can then search for and install packages. ''openssh-sftp-server'' might be useful, or the ''nano'' text editor for in-situ changes to the configuration.

From the command line, ''opkg'' is the tool to manage packages. "opkg update" to update the lists, "opkg find openssh*" to search, "opkg install wireguard-tools" to install.
