I thought we were only supposed to upgrade pre-installed packages in rare instances, when a security issue has been discovered and the mailing list tells us a specific package should be replaced. For example, the documentation says:

> Upgrading packages may cause serious problems ... Just because there is an updated version of a given package does not mean it should be installed

However, the latest release notes say:

> We strongly recommend upgrading to the latest OpenWrt release and installing all available package updates

Well, which is it?

EDIT: I wondered if the advice had changed with the move to apk, but the warning in the docs specifically mentions both package managers.

After installing OpenWrt on my Zyxel NWA210AX, I found that it was set up like an AP. Fair enough, that is what it was designed to do, but it has a fast CPU and two Ethernet ports, and I wanted to use it as a router.

So I've reconfigured it as a router, manually set up a WAN interface and zone, firewall rules, and so on. Everything's working perfectly except for IPv6, and I can't seem to work out what I've done wrong!

So I'm looking to crib from a sane configuration. Is there an easy way to view the default contents of /etc/config/ for a router build of OpenWrt?
