Can you find any hints here? This describes installing the vendor
driver. The usb vendor and product ids are the same, so yours ought to
be the same as this.

Maintaining a driver manually sucks, but it may help until the open
source driver works for your dongle.

I finally received the item.
I plugged it in and kernel recognizes it as:
[ 174.952769 <tel:174.952769>] usb 2-2: USB disconnect, device number 3
[ 192.344054 <tel:192.344054>] usb 2-2: new high-speed USB device
number 5 using ehci-pci
[ 192.473984 <tel:192.473984>] usb 2-2: New USB device found,
idVendor=0e8d, idProduct=7610
[ 192.473989 <tel:192.473989>] usb 2-2: New USB device strings: Mfr=1,
Product=2,
SerialNumber=3
[ 192.473993 <tel:192.473993>] usb 2-2: Product: WiFi
[ 192.473996 <tel:192.473996>] usb 2-2: Manufacturer: MediaTek
[ 192.473999 <tel:192.473999>] usb 2-2: SerialNumber: 1.0
And since the file
drivers/net/wireless/rt2x00/Kconfig
has the following config line:
config RT2800USB_RT55XX
bool "rt2800usb - Include support for rt55xx devices (EXPERIMENTAL)"
---help---
This adds support for rt55xx wireless chipset family to the
rt2800usb driver.
Supported chips: RT5572
So, I ran modprobe rt2800usb which loaded:
# lsmod | grep 2800
rt2800usb 28672 <tel:28672> 0
rt2x00usb 20480 <tel:20480> 1 rt2800usb
rt2800lib 94208 <tel:94208> 1 rt2800usb
rt2x00lib 69632 <tel:69632> 3 rt2x00usb,rt2800lib,rt2800usb
crc_ccitt 16384 <tel:16384> 1 rt2800lib
mac80211 704512 <tel:704512> 4 rt2x00lib,rt2x00usb,rt2800lib,iwldvm
However, iwconfig does not show the interface.
How do I get there from here ? :) :)
Thank you Birger.
I downloaded the files mentioned in those tips.
Bet before I build the Ralink provided driver, I
will recompile the fedora kernel from source
and enable the Experimental driver which supports
RT5572, and try that out.
If it does not work, I will fall back on recompiling
the driver your link led me to.
Kind regards,
JD
