Entware-ng is a software package repository (~2000 packages) for embedded devices such as routers and network-attached storages, built on Buildroot. It provides prebuilt binaries for armv5, armv7, mipsel, x86-32, and x86-64 platforms, and is now deprecated in favor of the successor Entware repository.

Use cases

  • install linux packages on a router
  • add software to my nas
  • run opkg packages on embedded devices
  • extend router firmware with extra tools
  • install utilities on mipsel or arm embedded hardware

When to choose

  • you need a package feed for a router, NAS, or other embedded Linux device on armv5/armv7/mipsel/x86

When to avoid

  • you are starting a new project - the project is deprecated and superseded by the newer Entware repository
  • you need packages for mainstream desktop or server Linux distributions
