New RUTX11- can't install Nano anymore?

Networking Solutions Question

Greetings @valhalla,

Our apologies for the delayed response.

In recent versions of RutOS, Teltonika has completely removed the standard OpenWrt package repository list from the device’s custom feed settings. This is why standard OpenWrt commands fail — the router simply has no record of where actually resides online.

To install nano, you must manually append the correct package feed for the RUTX11’s architecture (arm_cortex-a7_neon-vfpv4) back into your configuration.

Please connect to the device via SSH or open the CLI from the device’s WebUI, then follow the steps below.

  1. Run this command to append the standard OpenWrt package repository feed directly to your distfeeds.conf file:

    echo "src/gz openwrt_packages https://downloads.openwrt.org/releases/21.02.0/packages/arm_cortex-a7_neon-vfpv4/packages" >> /etc/opkg/openwrt/distfeeds.conf

  2. Instruct opkg to update its registry using the newly modified OpenWrt configuration file:

    opkg -e /etc/opkg/openwrt/distfeeds.conf update

  3. With the package list officially refreshed, run the install command with the same environment flag:

    opkg -e /etc/opkg/openwrt/distfeeds.conf install nano

After completing these steps, nano should be installed and ready to use.

Please let us know whether you are able to install and use nano after following these steps. If you encounter any issues, we will be happy to assist you further.

We look forward to your response.

Best regards,
