But, ifconfig only shows only these interfaces:
$ ifconfig
bond0: flags=5123<UP,BROADCAST,MASTER,MULTICAST>  mtu 1500

em1: flags=4099<UP,BROADCAST,MULTICAST>  mtu 1500

lo: flags=73<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING>  mtu 65536

virbr0: flags=4099<UP,BROADCAST,MULTICAST>  mtu 1500

So, what is missing as far as drivers, or apps ????

There seem to be lots of "MediaTeK 7610" dongles with various chips inside.  You could try
adding your USB id to the list of devices supported by the rt2800usb module:

If this fails you might at least get the details for your chipset.
