Curl on NEXX WT3020H with the Cloudhub?

Submitted by renkott on #1

Is i possible to get it to work? I need to use https for monitoring against PRTG monitor.

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/24489729/openwrt-curl-on-mr-3020 suggest installing in RAM.
OPKG isn´t availible, so I guess I go with wget?
But how?

Is this file what I want?

No, opkg is not on the cloudhub firmware image.

You need to put curl on their yourself manually by just copying the curl static binary to /root via scp and putty. Or, you can make the static binary by compiling it using the lede (now openwrt again) image generator

I did order Wr902AC instead.
I don´t find a static binary for Curl Mips to download.

I made a static binary on my Ubuntu machine, included MIPS host and put it in /bin with wget.
The binary runs fine on my Ubuntu but I got this error on the Wr902:

Is Curl compiled wrong some way or is it some other issue?

/bin/curl: line 1: ELF: not found
/bin/curl: line 2: l�: not found

You compiled with the wrong endian

Is this some flag i have to change when I compile?
I think I did something like --host=mips-linux.

You need to download a compiler for MIPS or compile a new compiler, it's very difficult if you don't know what you are doing

So which are my options here?
I need some way to know my serialport router is up, through http and a post/get message.
Curl?
The only MIPS options seams to be ipk or rpm?

So if I won´t be able to compile for Mips, I need to install OpenWRT instead and when download it Virtualhere and Curl to OpenWRT?

Is where something else then Curl which will do the same, that is easier or maybe already in place?

I'm not sure sorry , this sort of thing is not really related, to virtualhere. If you want to build your own system you need to research how to do it
