Wget over https, confusing error messages, failure to connect

My router has started to refuse kmods, so it’s time to reflash. Oh, well.
root@ariadne:/tmp# wget https://downloads.lede-project.org/snapshots/targets/ar7 1xx/generic/lede-ar71xx-generic-wndr3700v2-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin wget: SSL support not available, please install ustream-ssl
Sure, no problem.
root@ariadne:/tmp# opkg install ustream-ssl Unknown package 'ustream-ssl'. Collected errors:
- opkg_install_cmd: Cannot install package ustream-ssl.
Do you find that as confusing as I do? Okay, let’s guess the package name.
root@ariadne:/tmp# opkg install libustream-polarssl ... root@ariadne:/tmp# wget https://downloads.lede-project.org/snapshots/targets/ar71xx/generic/lede-ar71xx-generic-wndr3700v2-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin Downloading 'https://downloads.lede-project.org/snapshots/targets/ar71xx/generic/lede-ar71xx-generic-wndr3700v2-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin' Connecting to 2a01:4f8:202:43ea::2:443 Connection error: Invalid SSL certificate
At that point, I gave up, and just downloaded to my laptop and transferred to the router over scp.
