Missing drivers on x86 64

Hello,
I've installed gargoyle on my x86 64 bit machine. Installation went well, i can see console on monitor i can log in it; but i can't connect router via lan ports because it does not have any nics in gargoyle .
My thin client has two cards: built-in realtek 8168/8111 and on pcie slot intel i350-t4 card. I suppose it's because of missing drivers.

How can i install appropriate drivers for my device? Is there any easy way to add them e.g from usb stick
or the only way is to build my own image?

Only building your own image sorry.
There are some plans to make this better in the future for x86 devices in particular, but for now you must build.

Thank you Lantis for your answer, in other way:
if i have in pcie slot or on usb port other (temporary) card which is supported in default ext 4 x86_64 image and have internet connection on wan on this x86 device is it possible to install drivers (kmods) for intel i350 nic from online repositories?

No. Only option is to build

Thank you Lantis.
Building my own image seems to be a little be difficult for me know but sky is the limit

I need to learn and read about it, maybe proxmox would be a point to start.
