I’m having trouble getting my MediaTek MT7902 WiFi card to work on Ubuntu 24.04 the last version of Ubuntu with kernel 6.8.0-51. The card works fine on Windows, but on Ubuntu, no networks are detected.

Details:

  1. The card shows up in lspci:

00:02.0 Network controller [0280]: MEDIATEK Corp. Device [14c3:7902]

  1. ip link output:

2: enx022376651f09: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> mtu 65536 qdisc fq_codel state UNKNOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000

  1. Firmware (linux-firmware) is up to date.

  2. I loaded the mt76 driver (modprobe mt76), but it doesn’t seem to work.

  3. dmesg gives:

read kernel buffer failed: Operation not permitted

What I’ve tried:

  • Updated linux-firmware.
  • Loaded the mt76 module.
  • Restarted NetworkManager.
  • Unblocked WiFi using rfkill unblock all.

Question:

How can I get this WiFi card to work on Ubuntu? Do I need a specific driver, firmware, or kernel version?

Thanks for your help!

This exact WiFi card lacks a working driver.

The mt76 driver is only for these cards: MT76x0e, MT76x2e, MT7603, MT7615, MT7628 and MT7688

While on Windows it does work, on Ubuntu it WILL NOT work no matter what.
