This is on a separate line because the version number may change: opkg install libustream-mbedtls20150806 (REMEMBER, the "WOLFSSL" package will need to be removed first, but don't do it yet.  First manually download the file for libustream-mbedtlsXYZversion, then after that file has been downloaded, remove the "WOLFSSL" package, then install the "BMEDTLS" version, because if you remove the "WOLFSSL" package first, it will 'CrapCan' the OPKG utility and prevent it from downloading anything.)
