Madiatek WIFI Card not detected, no wifi

in flag

I got a new pc and it has a mediatek wifi I tried every kernel from 5.12 to 5.16, nothing worked. BT works for some reason, it seems to be a driver problem not loading (checked everywhere, people made it work somehow) The card works in windows, I'm NOT dual booting, just installed to check.

these are some info:

Although a long time user, not really that savvy on this. Never had hardware problems. I got a fresh kubuntu install

any idea? (using usb tethering on mobile)

Please edit your question to show the result of the terminal commands: `lspci -nnk | grep 0280 -A3` and also: `sudo dmesg | grep mt7` Welcome to Ask Ubuntu.

Oops! I was chasing the USB and not the PCI. Sorry for my mis-step. As for the PCI: "MEDIATEK Corp. Device [14c3:0608]" please see the duplicate.

Hi, this morning I logged on and the pci adapter attempts to connect but disconnects contginously without being able to load any page. I'm back on the usb adapter. (I can't comment on duplicate post, not enough points)

I suggest that you start a new question and refer to this question; something like: "My wireless disconnects constantly." Include `lspci -nnk | grep 0280 -A3` and `sudo dmesg | grep mt7` I'll be happy to help.

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
