I'm willing to bet that when you tried you had ran it simply as "user" . Examples (which assume that you are already operating from the correct directory ... or alternatively just pass the correct directory path for the get_dvb_firmare script along in the command line below): $ perl get_dvb_firmware nxt2004 AVerTVHD_MCE_A180_Drv_v1.2.2.16.zip: Permission denied wget failed - unable to download firmware at get_dvb_firmware line 372. Whereas when attempted as the "root" user: $ sudo perl get_dvb_firmware nxt2004 root's password: --23:25:52-- http://www.aver.com/support/Drivers/AVerTVHD_MCE_A180_Drv_v1.2.2.16.zip => `AVerTVHD_MCE_A180_Drv_v1.2.2.16.zip' Resolving www.aver.com... 66.206.166.24 Connecting to www.aver.com|66.206.166.24|:80... connected.
