Hi there, I was hoping to get some help with the CLI. Netclient CLI version v0.9.4 on OpenWRT 22.03.2 and when trying to join a network I get:

I dont see the output of the join command here
btw 0.9.4 is quite outdated now, I would recommend installing the latest version

I followed the instructions that point to the repo that is supported by sbilly. Not sure how I can get the latest version on this little router. Do you have a suggestion?
The output is on the very top. I just cut off the join command for security reasons. Also, for some reason, I cannot use the -vvv to get more information about when exactly the error is being triggered.

download a binary from the github repo and and install with 
sudo ./netclient install

Can you point me to the latest binary file?

check the releases page

I did, which of all should I download?

one of the mips ones

I see only one so I'm guessing there's no other option.

Thanks a bunch. I will flash the image on the router again and download the binary file to give it a try. I will let you know what the results are.
Hey @bored-island-21407, I followed your instructions but no luck. Here I tried to run install on the binary file I downloaded. 
/tmp # ./netclient-mips-upx install
./netclient-mips-upx: line 1: syntax error: unexpected "("
That gave me a syntax error. So I checked if Netclient is installed already per the previous instructions from sbilly GitHub. 
/tmp # netclient

USAGE:
   netclient [global options] command [command options] [arguments...]

VERSION:
   v0.9.4

COMMANDS:
   join       Join a Netmaker network.
   leave      Leave a Netmaker network.
   checkin    Checks for local changes and then checks into the specified Netmaker network to ask about remote changes.
   push       Push configuration changes to server.
   pull       Pull latest configuration and peers from server.
   list       Get list of networks.
   uninstall  Uninstall the netclient system service.
   help, h    Shows a list of commands or help for one command

GLOBAL OPTIONS:
   --help, -h     show help (default: false)
   --version, -v  print the version (default: false)
I did not see any install option unlike the option I see when I do the same on my MacOS 
sudo netclient
VERSION:
   v0.16.1

COMMANDS:
   join        Join a Netmaker network.
   leave       Leave a Netmaker network.
   pull        Pull latest configuration and peers from server.
   list        Get list of networks.
   uninstall   Uninstall the netclient system service.
   daemon      run netclient as daemon
   install     install binary and daemon
   connect     connect netclient to a given network if disconnected
   disconnect  disconnect netclient from a given network if connected
   help, h     Shows a list of commands or help for one command
But I still tried to run the command: 
/tmp # netclient install netclient-mips-upx
No help topic for 'install'
What would you suggest I try next?
In addition I read the thread you suggested and looked into the notes of the pull request. Here is the LSCPU output of both of my routers that I am trying to make work.

rename netclient-mips-upx to netclient and run ./netclient install

Looks like wrong version (arch) of binary

11/22/2022, 5:47 PM
Yeah, is there another one that I can download or perhaps you can help me go through the process of building from source?

@clever-knife-27154 , yup last pull request I made supported for 
Architecture:        mips
Byte Order:          Little Endian
there is one coming up https://github.com/gravitl/netmaker/pull/1756 for 
Byte Order:          Big Endian
you can try it out

@boundless-photographer-22783 I read your thread on this topic and main issue comes because this model of the GL routers as we discovered uses the Big Endian. I was able to get version 0.9.4 up and running but unless I am running the same version server I don't think I can get it to connect properly. So the next suggestion was to download a binary file for a newer version and try to install it. Is the Big Endian version available yet?

Most likely by next release 
Big Endian
will be supported through https://github.com/gravitl/netmaker/pull/1756
