Depends on format of driver IPK/tar.gz should be sent to tmp folder for manual install of drivers you can ftp them to /lib/modules

First you need to determine if these drivers match your driver version

To determine the driver version you need to use telnet into the box and at the prompt type



cat /proc/version

and hit enter.

The output will show you a version it will be 4.1.1 or 4.4.3

Use the correct version from that matches what telnet showed you. Youll see the drivers are named 4.1.1 0r 4.4.3 version numbers

Just use the tar format

FTP to tmp and do a manual install from your images adoon panel

But as i stated you need to do this via telnet

To determine the driver version you need to use telnet into the box and at the prompt type





cat /proc/version

and hit enter.

The output will show you a version it will be 4.1.1 or 4.4.3

Use the correct version from that matches what telnet showed you. Youll see the drivers are named 4.1.1 0r 4.4.3 version numbers
