If you are not tied to Optware in particular, use Entware-3X. It is much easier to install.
1. Get a USB/HDD partition, mount it on the router or at least a folder of it to /opt
2. run the following commands from SSH / telnet:
Code:
wget -O http://entware-3x.zyxmon.org/binaries/mips/installer/install_std.sh | sh
opkg update
opkg upgrade

Succeeded finally! Thank you for all your input guys! Entware is the winner.
So done this on my WNDR3700v2 (build 30880):
USD HDD formatted to NTFS
USB and automount enabled in DD-WRT
(Samba is working from the NAS page as well, just need to specify the share and username,password on the bottom of the page)
connected with WinSCP and PuTTY
made an "opt" directory on my HDD root:

(the settings.json can be edited from WinSCP on the path above)
After confirmed the transmission working on:
my.router.ip:9091/transmission/web/
added these to the startup script of DD-WRT:
mount /mnt/sda1/opt /opt
chmod 755 /opt
/opt/etc/init.d/rc.unslung start
This way it restarts after reboot .
Work for me in TPLINK WDR4300 thanks
I installed minidlna and i have used the configuration files "minidlna.conf" and "settings.json" from my previous installation and they work perfectly.
For minidlna i added this line to script startup
minidlna -f /opt/etc/minidlna.conf
What is the difference between Entware and Optware? Is there any better than another?

Hi
Have a problem installing OPTWARE.
WDR4300 V1 build 25697
I follow the guide, make a functions.sh (could not download, but make it from the link and put it on sda2 lib folder by samba) but when I came to the ipkg -d point I get the following errors:
ipkg -d / -force-depends install uclibcxx_0.2.4-2_ar71xx.ipk
ipkg_depends: ERROR: Package name uclibcxx_0.2.4-2_ar71xx.ipk contains illegal characters (should be [a-z0-9.+-])

Is bad functions.sh file or other problem?
is entware simmilar? I need mosquito MQTT
Hi.
I'm using samba in tplink 3600 but i see the speed is limited by CPU, 10MB/s.
I changed parameters in smb.conf and exec manual and now the speed IS 11,1MB/s.
Now is 10% faster.
First copy smb.conf
cp /tmp/smb.conf /tmp/sda2/opt/etc/config/
Edit new config with vi or nano
Add at global:
use sendfile = no
unix extensions = no

Hi guys!
Minidlna and all dependencies are installed from barrier breaker 14.07, config file is made, but unable to launch minidlna. Same happens after installing from other repo.
-sh: minidlna: not found

tl;dr:
3 years ago I successfully got everything working on my WDR4300. After years of working, the Wi-Fi suddenly dropped every 5 minutes recently. After doing some research, it is DD-WRT bug.
Reading this updated tutorial I completely reinstalled my router to the latest supported v3.0-r30731 version.
Following this latest tutorial, I got EVERYTHING working, except Minidlna, which was missing from the repo. I found the chaos repo including 1.1.5 Minidlna, however I got "not found" error message while launching Minidlna. I uninstalled Minidlna and all its dependencies.
I found this in the comments:

Advice:
dejavubr has reported bad performance on MiniDLNA and Transmission, using Chaos Calmer repository and has got good results using Barrier Breaker repo:
Because that version of Minidlna has good performance, I changed repo, I installed it with all the dependencies, but I still get not found error message (see: screenshot above). It has executable permission. It is located and installed into the correct place. I have no idea how to proceed.
(Remarks: In my system SDA1 and SDA2 is changed compared to this tutorial).
After you upgraded the router's firmware, did you do a fresh reinstall of Optware again? If not, erase the old Optware (such as reformat the USB drive) and reinstall Optware again.
To further complicate the problem, you may have issue with Optware installation since there is an issue with wget not functioning correctly. I am not sure if the issue is fixed with the firmware that you are using.
I think the best way is to keep the old USB drive as backup and use another drive to do the Optware reinstallation.
Yes, I completely reinstalled everything, I started with webrevert to stock.
It's a pity I have no more information about this issue, only "not found"...
Should I completely reinstall again with the latest (untested in this tutorial) firmware?
