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

 

I noticed that http://www.mediatek.com/en/downloads/mt7630-pcie/ now
offers a new driver version: MT7630E_Wi-
Fi_BT_Source_V3.14_20140625_v2.tar.gz (instead of MT7630E_Wi-
Fi_BT_Source_V3.14_20140625.tar).

I was able to run make, but load.sh hangs my machine on "insmod
./rt2800pci.ko".

So current choices are: Old driver as of 20140625: Working but constant
100% cpu load. New v2 driver: Not working.

Will stick to my noname WLAN stick for now...
