RUTX11 7.06.6 opkg distfeeds not working: fix included

[Bob1974]

For others wondering why the distfeeds aren’t working on the RUTX11 FW 7.06.6, it seems like the configuration file is just in the wrong place.

Broken:

Fix:

root@RUTX11-F25C:~# cp /etc/opkg/openwrt/distfeeds.conf /etc/opkg

after that, the sources can update:

Hello,

These configuration files aren’t separated without reason. By default, teltonikafeeds.conf is used. It contains all opkg packages that have been tested and are known to work on our devices. The other file provides an option to access additional opkg packages that can be found for OpenWRT systems. This is provided for your convenience to access all packages if needed.

Best regards,

Marijus

ah ok - this strategy seems to be different between the TSW202 and the RUTX11
