-Entware is a software package installer. It allows you to install programs that can't be included into Tomato itself, mainly due to most routers' limited flash RAM size. This example assumes you have a USB flash drive mounted under /mnt/sda1. If you need more details about configuring USB storage before reading this, see the [[:usb_support|USB Support]] page.+\\ [[https://entware.net/about.html|Entware]] is a software repository for network attached storage, routers and other embedded devices. [[http://bin.entware.net/armv7sf-k3.2/Packages.html|2500+ packages]] are available for different platforms. Entware packages are full versions of programs/commands found in common Linux distributions. You can expand upon the BusyBox versions of commands included with FreshTomato and install packages not already installed. This allows you to "//push the limits//" of your router.
