Re: Lost on Step #15, opkg update / adding USB support - "can't connect to remote host"

Hi,
are you using the offlineArt package?

Beside of this, I recommend you a different approach. Because your router has a WAN port, you should do the following:

1. Login to your PirateBox, change Network-configuration. Switch that line

   option ipaddr '192.168.1.111'

To something different from your homenetwork. i.e.

   option ipaddr '192.168.77.1'

After saving & exit

2. Run

reboot

3. Disconnect the cable to your homelan router
4. SSH into your new IP of the box ( 192.168.77.1 )
5. Plugin the cable to your homelan into the Port with the different color (I think blue), the WAN Port
5.a. your network configuration is done automatically ( ;) )
5.b. Wait and check via

ifconfig

if eth0.2 got an IP address.
6. Try to proceed with

opkg update

Because your device has an additional WAN Port you are able to leave out all the network-configuration stuff, If your homenetwork is not 192.168.1.x
