@Jahidul Hamid: Your way to load the module works, but is it the proper
way to proceed ? I usually hear people talking about dkms when they want
to load a module in the kernel... I used a method with dkms to install
the module, but I've just one fear : that the wifi doesn't work anymore
when a new kernel is installed. Do you have a way to avoid this problem
by keeping using dkms ?

NB : for people interesting in the DKMS method to load these modules, I
made a documentation here : https://doc.ubuntu-fr.org/wifi_bt_mt7630e.
It's in french but you can use google translate or even keep using the
french, it's not very important.
