I have one mt76x2u (Alfa AWUS036ACM) and a few mt76x0. I've noticed two additional issues in my testing. First issue, is that it appears the mt76x0 devices don't work properly in monitor mode. Sometimes they seem to monitor one channel properly, but nothing else. The mt76x2u works great, channel control, lots of packets, etc.Could you elaborate a little bit please? how can you reproduce the issue? just add an interface in monitor mode and run a scan?
Correct, standard stuff, use iw to create a monitor mode interface, use iw to remove managed mode interface, run some tool such as kismet or airodump-ng or even wireshark.

Second issue, and frankly a very minor one, is that the TP-Link T1U (which is a 5GHz only device) still thinks it has support for 2.4GHz, both in managed and monitor mode.I guess it depends on eeprom values. Could you please enable debug messages a paste syslog output?
I don't see a mediatek specific debug near the driver selection in menuconfig, what debug messages do you want me to enable and how? Thanks, Zero

Lastly, I already mentioned in the other thread, but it would be awesome if firmware version was available to ethtool.Ack, I will take care of it Regards, Lorenzoquoted
Thanks for all your hard work on this, Zero
