====Creation====

This is going to be my third and final profile. The first lasted the ten years it was meant to, the second lasted three years and could not be recovered due to configuration hiccups. My personal one will be set to 100 years, far beyond my expected lifetime. Things may adjust if I allow another user access, but as of yet - no one has asked.

Install all needed apps beforehand:

opkg update opkg install luci-app-advanced-reboot luci-app-openvpn openvpn-easy-rsa openvpn-openssl

====Restoration====

Configuration backups do NOT include the downloaded software packages, learned this the really hard way... On any new or refreshed partition image, the following lines !MUST! be run !FIRST! to ensure that the software is in place prior to restoring a configuration!

Line 279:

opkg install luci-app-advanced-reboot luci-app-openvpn openvpn-easy-rsa openvpn-openssl

Then find your working config and navigate to System > Backup / Flash Firmware > Restore backup: <~~restore~~ the appropriate file name>

Then find your working config and navigate to System > Backup / Flash Firmware > Restore backup: <pick the appropriate file name>
