I installed v3.0-r52485 std (05/11/23) on a TP-Link WR841ND v9. It doesn't seem to have tcpdump installed and the guides I have found for installing tcpdump reference installing entware, which seems to require a USB port on the router.

Is there another way to install tcpdump? Or is tcpdump available on another version of ddwrt that will work on a TP-Link WR841ND v9?

Thanks

Any way you slice it, 4MB flash device, not going to have JFFS support, not going to have space left on flash chip to support installing Entware. No USB port, no Entware. You're not going to have tcpdump included in DD-WRT on this router simply based on firmware image size and flash chip size constraints.
