  After some research this device turned out to have a Mediatek mt7610un chipset.
  There is an official driver on the mediatek website: http://www.mediatek.com/en/downloads/?sort=os

  We compiled the driver and copied the binary files from ~/mt7610u_wifi_sta_v3002_dpo_20130916/mcu/bin 
  to /lib/firmware.

  The result of sudo modprobe mt7650u_sta is:

  Mar  8 16:37:15 kernel: [  279.692549] ERROR!!! NICLoadFirmware
  failed, Status[=0x00000001]
