Hello.
I was wondering if anyone can tell me what the easiest way is to transfer files to and transfer files from my router? At the moment I use an SCP client, i.e. command-line secure file copy, to copy files to my router but I was wondering what a easy was to copy files from the router to my PC.
Can anyone help?
Thanks in advance!!!

By "easy" do you really mean, where's the GUI?
If so, you can use a tool like winscp from a Windows machine and it works fine.
Personnaly I prefer to install the openssh-sftp-server package. This works without any problems with dropbear, and then you have your choice of scp or sftp clients, such as filezilla on windows, or gftp on linux.
I installed the openssh-sftp-server package. I use this to transfer files TO the router.
Can I also use this to transfer files from the router??
IF so, how?
download instead of uploading using sftp.
or you can put files in /www and get them with http (web browser).

Jeez, was this really just a question on scp syntax? Sound like you don't even need openssh-sftp-server if you already use the command line.
Try "man scp".
I'm not a unix-crack... I'll try the man... thanks anyway
