My site is github.com/morrownr/USB-WiFi Helping Linux users with USB WiFi is what we do. The OP could have added a comment to the patch showing the adapter that is causing this patch to be submitted. Maybe he can submit a v2 that can be expedited? Guidance? Nick github.com/morrownr/USB-WiFi

Felix&Lorenzo, ack? wifi: mt76: mt7921: add Netgear AXE3000 (A8000) Add support for the Netgear AXE3000 (A8000) based on the Mediatek mt7921au chipset. A retail sample of the Netgear AXE3000 (A8000) yeilds the following from lsusb D 0846:9060 NetGear, Inc. Wireless_Device. This has been reported by other users on Github.

Do you know if the support > for this chip it's avaiable with the community driver? I don't know what hardware ids QCA6696 has but in theory ath11k supports that family (QCA6390) of devices, though some changes might be needed. But ath11k won't help you as it only support station and AP interface modes with QCA6390 family. BTW please don't send HTML emails, our lists drop those.

Issue: Though the Netgear AXE3000 (A8000) is based on the mt7921 chipset because of the unique USB VID:PID combination this device does not initialize/register. Thus making it not plug and play. Fix: Adds support for the Netgear AXE3000 (A8000) based on the Mediatek mt7921au chipset. The method of action is adding the USD VID/PID pair to the mt7921u_device_table[] array. Notes: A retail sample of the Netgear AXE3000 (A8000) yeilds the following from lsusb D 0846:9060 NetGear, Inc. Wireless_Device.
