The present Entware-ng has ntpd. It would be helpful to also have gpsd (and cgps) added. This would allow USB based GPS devices to be used as part of the NTP calculation.

Done. https://github.com/Entware-ng/entware-packages/commit/9044cb1603bde5ffb6cb999e6212e5410e03e8a4 ARM/x86 binaries will arrive in a couple of days.

I saw those thread, it's impressive. Just curious: are you going to put router on window to receive GPS?

ARM/x86 binaries are already in repo )))

Thanks guys! it works great. ryzhovau, I have for now an old USB GPS tracker I used to use for geotagging my photos. It is pretty sensitive and I am getting 8 satellites in the upper floor where the router is located.

I have installed both your ntpd and gpsd. I then put in kvics fancy web tab for Asuswrt-merlin. Working well!

My next project is to interface to a used Garmin GPS 18X LVC I purchased on ebay. I am going to attempt to get PPS precision.
