[Bug 1220146] Re: Need support for new Ralink Wifi card - Mediatek 7630 [14c3:7630]

 

I'm using ubuntu 14.04 with kernel 3.13 and I installed the driver. Driver works perfectly, but htop shows when wifi is unblocked by rfkill one  CPU core is 100% used, but no process uses more then 3% of CPU. Indicator multiload shows CPU is used to 3-4% but iowait is 25%(I have 2 cores and 4 threads). When I run powerstats it shows, when wifi is unblocked power reises from 10W to 14W.
Do you have the same problem ? I used ubuntu 14.10 too but the same problem. Thanks.
