Just for kicks, you know.. should my cable or ethernet card fail for whatever reason or just.. well actually it was just for fun
Windows 7, which I thought would just work, didn't know what to do with the thing, the seller even gave me some software to install, no dice.

The two lines:
Code: Select all
sudo wget https://github.com/porjo/mt7601/raw/master/src/mcu/bin/MT7601.bin -O /lib/firmware/mt7601u.bin
sudo modprobe -r mt7601u && sudo modprobe mt7601u
Here is what things are looking like now:
Code: Select all
