I need to monitor the functionality of a router using openWRT, I use your services for other part of my project and really want to use it under the router too

Describe the solution you'd like
Make it work on OpenWRT

I know Tailscale works with that, but we already have everything setup with Netbird

I tried installing Netbird on my OpenWrt router using the standard curl command to download it via SSH. I received an error indicating that the service was not installed.

I'm not entirely sure, but did you download it from NetBird official GitHub? Keep in mind that netbird is available in the official OpenWrt repository.

Tried with the latest netbird version and openwrt 22.01

OpenWrt 22.03 is very outdated and has reached its end of life, netbird version 0.17.0 is old, https://github.com/openwrt/packages/blob/openwrt-22.03/net/netbird/Makefile. I recommend upgrading to OpenWrt 24.10 and installing netbird using opkg or LuCI.

If that's not feasible, I don't recommend it. However, you can probably download the appropriate ipk package from here https://downloads.openwrt.org/releases/24.10.0/packages/, you just need to know your architecture, for example, for x86_64, you can use this package https://downloads.openwrt.org/releases/24.10.0/packages/x86_64/packages/netbird_0.36.7-r1_x86_64.ipk, and then install it using opkg install.

After completing the netbird installation, make sure to follow this steps #2268 (comment).
