Thanks :D
For those, who prefer to compile the driver by themselves, I can post the patch, which makes Ralink's driver 3.0.0.4 compatible with kernel 3.18+
The driver is not loading and I assume it is because it doesn't recognise the wifi module.fburton wrote:I have tried to install the driver following the last post. No issue to report in the actual installation process, but it's not working.

alfonder could you please make the driver for the latest update (3.18.5+ 748) available?alfonder wrote:Eventually, I'm back from those soooo long New Year holidays
Here is the driver for kernel 3.18.5+ #746.
How to install
Ssh to your RaspberryPi and enter the following commands (better copy-paste to avoid typos):Code: Select all
cd /tmp wget https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/67643651/mt7601_3.18.5_746.tar.gz sudo tar xf mt7601_3.18.5_746.tar.gz -C / sudo depmod 3.18.5+ sudo reboot
Thanks for the driver! I tried to compile the driver myself from source, but without patch it doesn't work with the 3.18.5 kernel (or any 3.x. kernel?)alfonder wrote:Glad to know it helped.nishchay wrote: immediately the ra0 was up.

sudo depmod 3.18.6+

I have done an upgrade but it looks like the Foundation released 3.18.6+ 754 yesterday. Any chance of a driver or do I need to downgrade to 753?alfonder wrote:Here is the driver for kernel 3.18.6+ #753.

Besides, in the driver I built and posted above there are additional changes:
- Stripped off debug messages
- Added device signatures 148f:760b and 148f:761a
It DOES work on A+, I've tested.ginner159 wrote:Any chance you can compile it for the a+ and pi 2
I seriously doubt that your dongle use the same MediaTek's chipset. It has too different ID.amazon83 wrote:I'm using xiaomi wifi, using driver DPO_MT7601U_LinuxSTA_3.0.0.4_20130913.tar.bz2 {USB_DEVICE(0x2717,0x4106)}, /* Xiaomi Wifi */

For pi2 it'll be more complicated since I don't have one. The kernel for pi2 is different. If you post /proc/config.gz file from pi2, I'll build the module for it, so you'll test it.
ilovemipi usually, a module is functional on all kernels with the same version and different builds. So just try it.
Works fine, thanks for keeping us all updated with the drivers.alfonder wrote:

Hi Alfonder, possible to upload the full source code?alfonder wrote:I seriously doubt that your dongle use the same MediaTek's chipset.

Anyway, you can try this module (compiled with your ID): https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/676 ... 601Usta.ko
First of all, does it work for your dongle?amazon83 wrote: Hi Alfonder, possible to upload the full source code?
I try using https://github.com/porjo/mt7601 source code to compile, I wonder what different between your source and porjo source code.alfonder wrote:First of all, does it work for your dongle?amazon83 wrote: Hi Alfonder, possible to upload the full source code?
Secondly, what do you mean about "full source code"? AFAIK, the module's license doesn't allow to redistribute modified source, so I can post a patch.
Thirdly, I've already posted the compatibility patch. And if you add your device signature, you'll get almost similar kernel module. Or you meant something else?
Thanks. It works!alfonder wrote:Here is the driver for kernel 3.18.6+ #753.
