Hello

I have logged in a router system which is linux.
The provider said it's based on debian OS.

Hi Tim!

Out of curiosity,
did you check any of the /etc/ files for the distro name?
I use this alias:


  $ sys.distro
  Debian GNU/Linux 12 \n \l


  $ type sys.distro
  sys.distro is aliased to `for file in /etc/{*issue*,*version*,*release*}; do [[ -f "$file" ]] 
&& cat "$file" && break; done;'
  $


Also, since you mention this is a router,
I can only imagine the manufacturer wants the installation to be minimal
in order to close as many security holes as possible,
and they wouldn't let you (easily) add or change anything to it.

Best,
