Mount ntfs-3g external usb drive

I just flashed the latest fw version for my router and lost the capability to mount an external ntfs HDD i have here.

{
	"kernel": "5.4.85",
	"hostname": "OpenWrt",
	"system": "Atheros AR9344 rev 2",
	"model": "TP-Link TL-WDR4300 v1",
	"board_name": "tplink,tl-wdr4300-v1",
	"release": {
		"distribution": "OpenWrt",
		"version": "SNAPSHOT",
		"revision": "r15373-93b6122212",
		"target": "ath79/generic",
		"description": "OpenWrt SNAPSHOT r15373-93b6122212"
	}
}

I've installed block-mount, ntfs-3g, kmod-fs-ntfs, kmod-fuse and kmod-usb-storage and still can't see my device on /dev/.

dmesg | grep usb

You may also need kmod-usb-storage-uas, and when using ntfs-3g you don't need kmod-fs-ntfs (and it may cause conflicts).

Yeah, that worked. Thanks.
