Yes, now I can see open ports and FTP works. Apparently this helped

I must have flashed wrong. I downloaded multiboot from downloads and saved the zip file on a USB key. Then I used the USB multiboot IMG upgrade option in the recovery menu.
Apparently I need to download the USB version. Unzip the files to the USB key and use the Flash recovery IMG option.
The box uses OpenVPN and is not accessible from the Internet.
Today I got physically to box. This is uClan Ustym 4K Pro.
There is a problem, because I cannot install a new IMG through the recovery menu. I tried the latest OpenPLi multiboot (from a USB stick). Next, I tried to install from the Internet in recovery mode, it was installed, but the box does not boot.
I also have the feeling that the FTP server in the box is not running. I can only access that box remotely via the Internet. The box worked without problems for more than 2 years. However, now there is a problem with port 21. I assume that OpenPLi uses VSFTPD.
IMG is an OpenPLi 8
Another box uclan, also OpenPLi 8 and without problems
Here are the nmaps from the boxes

Everything can be achieved with a properly prepared autobackup, including installing custom ipks. I normally flash multiple times a day, and have 30+ boxes. I have an USB stick for each model, with the required files.
If an admin needs to make some changes in a config file and manages 50 boxes, then Ansible can be very useful.
