Hello,

I checked on my RUTX11 and RUT955 there is a ftpt packages:

RUTX11:

root@Teltonika-RUTX11:~# opkg list | grep tftp
atftp - 0.7.1-5 - TFTP client
atftpd - 0.7.1-5 - TFTP server
erlang-inets - 5.10.6 - Erlang/OTP is a general-purpose programming language and runtime environment. Erlang has built-in support for concurrency, distribution and fault tolerance. . This Erlang/OTP package provides a container for Internet clients and servers. Currently a FTP client, a HTTP client and server, and a tftp client and server have been incorporated in Inets.
iputils-tftpd - 20101006-1 - Program tftpd from iputils Trivial File Transfer Protocol server.

RUT955:

What I can recommend is make sure that Teltonika device which you are using has the latest available firmware: https://wiki.teltonika-networks.com/view/FW_%26_SDK_Downloads and also, once you connect to the SSH/CLI try using these commands:

- opkg update

- opkg list | grep tftp

Hello,

Made a little research and it seems that default dnsmasq already has TFTP simply need to enable it. Here is a great page where it explains how you can enable it on OpenWRT, keep in mind RUT9 is using firmware which is based on OpenWRT.

https://github.com/alghanmi/openwrt_netgear-wndr3700/wiki/TFTP-Server-on-Your-OpenWRT-Router

Also, keep in mind that you probably would have to manually create /mnt/storage/tftp directory. Commands:

- cd /mnt

- mkdir storage

- cd /storage

- mkdir tftp

- cd /tftp

- vi test (enter any message for test purpose)

- /etc/init.d/dnsmasq restart

Open tftp sw and check if you can get file/information from RUT955.

Here is my results:
