There are no signs of openssl-1.1 libraries, which are needed by wget (which is needed by ipkg for installing/upgrading).

I can only guess that during an update or upgrade wget was updated, the update process broke for some reason and openssl-1.1 did not get installed.

As wget is needed to perform installation or upgrading of any package, your only option is to remove the existing wget, reverting to the firmware shipped one (which only needs openssl-1.0, which you have). Confused?

Try the following command:

ipkg --force-depends remove wget

That should remove the on-disk installed version and resurrect the firmware version. To confirm, try

ldd /usr/bin/wget

No "not found" should appear in the output, and libssl.so.1.0 should appear.

If that is the case, ipkg should be able to download pkgs and perform installation and upgrades, try

ipkg upgrade

The above was not tested, as I'm away from my boxes, but it should work. If not, please post the output of each command in the sequence.

Do you have any on-disk package installed which needs extensive configuration? Because the next option is to completely uninstall Alt-F pkgs from disk and reinstall (not reflash)
