Hello everyone,

I'm having trouble getting my Wi-Fi card to work on Linux Mint 22. Here are the technical details:

  • Hardware: MediaTek MT7922 (RZ616) Wi-Fi 6E
  • PCI ID: 14c3:7902 (Subsystem: AzureWave 1a3b:6040)
  • Kernel: 6.19 (installed via mainline to try and fix this)
  • Motherboard: ASUS AM5 (Ryzen 7600 setup)

What I've tried so far:

  1. BIOS: Disabled IOMMU and Fast Boot.
  2. Firmware: Manually added WIFI_RAM_CODE_MT7922_1.bin and associated files to /lib/firmware/mediatek/.
  3. Drivers: Tried loading mt7921e. However, modinfo mt7921e does not list the ID 7902.
  4. Forced ID: Tried echo "14c3 7902" > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/mt7921e/new_id, but it returns "Invalid Argument".
  5. Dmesg: The card is seen at 09:00.0 as a PCIe Endpoint, but the driver never attempts to bind to it.

Is the mt7922e module missing from this kernel build, or is there a specific patch needed for this AzureWave revision?

Thanks in advance for any help!
