How to Set Up an Open-WRT VPN
Use PuTTY to SSH into your router where OpenWRT is installed.
Install OpenVPN and related packages using opkg update, opkg install luci-app-openvpn, and opkg install openvpn-openssl opkg install ip-full.
Download the OVPN Version 2.0zip and unzip it and prepare to use the specific server file like es2-ovpn.ovpn.
Set up SFTP on the router to transfer the es2-ovpn.ovpn file through opkg install openssh-sftp-server.
Transfer the es2-ovpn.ovpn file to /etc/openvpn/ folder on the router and create a separate file for VPN credentials named secret.
Configure the OpenVPN client by linking es2-ovpn.ovpn to the secret file and enabling the VPN service using the uci commands.
Save all settings and prepare the router for a reboot to apply changes.
