Hi Zlatan,

Did you use this package https://github.com/lwfinger/mt7630 ? Or the
Mediatek package http://www.mediatek.com/en/downloads/mt7630-pcie/ ?

If installing on 14, the second one is better.
But your kernel seems to be 16, not 14. Then the first package is theorically better. "Theorically" means that I could correctly compile modules, load modules, see the Wifi networks, but I couldn't connect anyone (same issue #198). Pratically I bought a Realtek USB wifi TL-WN725N (6 euros) and it worked fine (but low signal) immediately. Now I am waiting for a better driver for mt7630.
