Mediatek launched a working driver for their wireless device MT7630E for Linux Mint/Ubuntu which was officially supported only for kernel 3.13 and 3.14. The modified driver I am going to use can be installed upto kernel 4.4.*

Download:

Download the driver from here (It’s a modification of the original driver for easy installation)https://github.com/neurobin/MT7630E/archive/release.zip

Install:

Now follow the instructions below:

  1. extract the archive in your Downloads directory (or any other directory).

  2. In terminal run:

cd ~/Downloads/MT7630E-release (change the path if you extracted in another folder)

  1. now run these commands one by one:

sudo chmod +x install
sudo ./install

It will prompt for your password. Put your password and wait to finish the installaion.

After installation has been completed the wifi will appear in the networkmanager and bluetooth will be available for use. The driver will load at startup automatically, so you don’t need to load the driver every time you reboot.
