Probably you need the file "openwrt-x86-ext2.image.gz" but I'm not sure
because I bever used it for x86.

The IP you see here is that of the reference server for the remote
server. It looks like this:

my machine 192.168.1.10 -> router 192.168.1.1 -> remote server -> reference server

And that's why the column is marked as "refid". Try "ntpq -np" to see
the remote server IP.
