packages seem to install but i cant start the server

You only installed kernel modules, not applications
Need to install applications like below. But I am not sure if they are in the repo

usbip-server
usbip-client

i’m following the install directions here, [OpenWrt Wiki] USB over IP tunnel

But seems like the application doesn’t support the correct architecture, is there a better place to get the correct application for the correct architecture
