>From my side I haven't yet planed to support this chip, but I consider to help working on that after finish work I currently planed to do (i.e. support for older MT7630E, MT7610E chips). Ultimate goal would be having you guys @Mediatek supporting your wifi chips in the mineline, similarly like you do for other hardware :-) I hope making mt76 more generic by adding new chips support, hence make easier to do that in the future, will convince you to support mainline instead of working on your of the tree driver. Obviously there are pros and cons of that approach and you might have good reasons not to do that too. > Cool, I am interested in adding MT7668u support to mt76 driver. > Is the adapter available on the market? According to https://wikidevi.com/wiki/MediaTek only 4 non-standard devices were provided with the MT7668u chip so far. I guess is hard for the chip vendor to say how popular will particular product be by OEMs. Thanks Stanislaw
