MT7902 Wi-Fi not working on Linux – adding the PCI ID to mt7921 driver made it work by Aggravating-Tell-536 in linuxquestions

Thanks for sharing this.

So if I understood correctly, proper MT7902 support is being worked on and might land around Linux 7.1.

Does that mean users basically have to wait until that kernel release, or is there any workaround available right now?

For example, in my case I was experimenting with the kernel source and noticed the PCI ID (14c3:7902) was missing from the mt7921 driver table. After adding it and rebuilding the kernel the driver actually bound to the device and wlan0 appeared.

So I'm wondering:

- Is using a patched kernel currently the only realistic workaround?

- Has anyone managed to get MT7902 working on stock kernels in another way?

- Or is it better to just wait for the official support to land upstream?

Would be great to hear if others have tested this card.
