I can't install my wifi drivers

Installing kmod-rt2800-usb (3.18.23+2016-01-10-1) to root...
Collected errors:
 * opkg_download_pkg: Package kmod-rt2800-usb is not available from any configured src.
 * opkg_install_pkg: Failed to download kmod-rt2800-usb. Perhaps you need to run 'opkg update'?
 * opkg_install_cmd: Cannot install package kmod-rt2800-usb.
If the above errors were only about a kernel version missmatch, please ignore them. The package was installed successfully.

I can't "ignore them" because my wifi usb card (Asus N300) doesn't works.

root@Win:~# lsusb -t
/:  Bus 01.Port 1: Dev 1, Class=root_hub, Driver=ehci-platform/1p, 480M
    |__ Port 1: Dev 2, If 0, Class=Vendor Specific Class, Driver=, 480M

Ther's no driver...

Fair enough. Since it says it can't download it, did you actually try to find it yourself? No, you didn't, because it took me all of 5 seconds to find it:

http://downloads.openwrt.org/chaos_calmer/15.05/ar71xx/generic/packages/base/kmod-rt2800-usb_3.18.20+2015-03-09-3_ar71xx.ipk

So it's in base, and it also shows the problem you have: The kernel you're running is too new. You run 3.18.23+2016-01-10-1 yet their supplied kernel module is for 3.18.20+2015-03-09-3 (as are all the other kernel modules, in fact).

Conclusion is that somehow you ended up with a kernel that's newer than what OpenWRT comes with, and you need to either revert to their old(er) kernel or get your source for your newer kernel to also provide these kernel module files.
