How to install ipk package

[Gaurav Borade]

I am trying to install the voxl-streamer, for that, I am following the procedure given on this link (https://docs.modalai.com/voxl-streamer/)

Here they used a path "/home/root/ipk" to install it, but in my voxl I cannot found the ipk package on root folder. I have the following in my "/home/root"

Need help to install the ipk package

@Gaurav-Borade You don’t need to be in any specific directory to use opkg update

[Eric Katzfey]

Just run the two commands in the /home/root directory if you do not have a /home/root/ipk directory. You can run the 2 commands from any directory, it does not have to be named /home/root/ipk

@tom & @Eric-Katzfey thank you for help

I tried but got following error

[Eric Katzfey]

Are you sure you are connected to the Internet? What happens when you try ping www.modalai.com? If that succeeds, what happens if you try ```
wget http://voxl-packages.modalai.com/stable/Packages.gz

@Eric-Katzfey said in How to install ipk package:

ping www.modalai.com

Hi Eric,

From VOXL board I am not able to ping to "www.modalai.com", I also tried to ping google.com.

However, I can able to ping to modalai from the host computer,

@Gaurav-Borade You’ll need to connect your VOXL to the internet in order to install the package. You can connect your VOXL to WiFi by using voxl-wifi station [SSID] [password] and then rebooting your VOXL.
