Hie everyone,

i upgrade my computer from 14.04 to Lubuntu 16.04 and I have the same problem with my Ralink mt7601u as Ralink MT7601U (148f:7601) Wi-Fi adapter not working on Ubuntu 16.04, but I don't want reinstall computer.

Turn off SECURE BOOT in your BIOS and you will probably be fine... assuming that your Ralink driver is current.

In 16.04, it's now required that drivers be signed. Yours isn't. Did you compile the driver yourself? Are you using DKMS? Cheers, Al
