Well... if you're able to get linux-firmware-nonfree built into XBian, then it works out of the box. I just got it working in Ubuntu, by a simple apt-get install.

Code:

greenbag@lotusland:~$ iwconfig

ra0       Ralink STA  ESSID:"SHAW-5G"  Nickname:"MT7610U_STA"

          Mode:Managed  Frequency=5.745 GHz  Access Point: xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx

What firmware file is needed? Huh

Debian also supplies a lot of firmware packages.
Try apt-cache search firmware

Btw, 65MB/s is not really fast Dodgy

XBian uses jessie... correct?

Code:

https://packages.debian.org/jessie/firmware-linux-nonfree

How to add sources in XBian?

Code:

https://linuxconfig.org/debian-apt-get-jessie-sources-list

RE: trying to install mt7610u (linksys ae6000) - Nachteule - 28th Feb, 2016 10:22 PM

Right - currently Jessie is used

You don't have to add anything

Just run an

Code:

sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install firmware-linux-nonfree

You don't have to add anything

Just run a apt-get install firmware-linux-nonfree

I tried that.. said package wasn't found.. even after doing apt-get update.

When selecting arm specific, it says it's there..

RE: trying to install mt7610u (linksys ae6000) - Nachteule - 28th Feb, 2016 10:29 PM

That's why I was asking which firmware file is needed.
Usually this will be logged in /var/log/syslog or if systemd has occupied logging you have to use systemd's journalctl
(don't know what ubuntu is using)
There is also a package called firmware-ralink - Binary firmware for Ralink wireless cards, maybe there is it

Btw, I'm going to install a 5G WLAN here. It's time to do this Smile

Will see if I can get a cheap AC600 Stick (TP-Link (Archer T2U) is my favourite)

hahaha Big Grin

Getting bored and wants to play. Big Grin

I added the Canadian mirrors to my /etc/apt/sources.list.. I guess I could have added the Main instead, but basically just wanted to add the sources listed on Jessie page.. they had 2 more than just the Main you had. It said it covered the arm as well. After that, apt-cache search firmware showed linux-firmware-nonfree. But it errored out. Sad

The package though, is firmware-linux-nonfree_0.43_all.deb.

Too bad there wasn't an "alien --to-arm" or "alien --to-rpi2" command. Tongue

Not good

If you're still getting bored, you can

Code:

cd /tmp

apt-get download firmware-linux-nonfree

dpkg -x firmware-linux-nonfree*deb .

This will extract the package into the folder /tmp. And then you are free to copy and overwrite existing files Smile

RE: trying to install mt7610u (linksys ae6000) - Nachteule - 29th Feb, 2016 12:52 AM

No, IMO in this file there are no wlan firmware binaries

You can figure it out which firmware file is used by plugging your wlan stick to your ubuntu system and watch the logfile /var/log/syslog

It's usually logged which firmware file is loaded or at least if a requested firmware file could not be loaded

RE: trying to install mt7610u (linksys ae6000) - Nachteule - 29th Feb, 2016 01:04 AM

I'm not sure if a fw file is really needed

Did you noticed this statement

Code:

So once up-and-running, the Sitecom AC600 works fine under Linux and even sees and connects to 5 GHz networks. But not without a caveat of-course. I needed to configure a 5 GHz channel below 100 (I chose 48) on my Apple Airport Extreme, or the Wi-Fi dongle would not see the 5GHz network and would not be able to connect to it.

lol... and here I am trying to find the right one, testing one at a time. I even thought I had it when I found mt7650.bin in my Ubuntu's /lib/firmware directory. Didn't work. Tongue

I figured it was similar to my Hauppauge 950Q usb tuner.. the driver's in the kernel, at least in openelec, but we still need to copy dvb-fe-xc5000-1.6.114.fw to /lib/firmware if we want it to work. Sounded reasonable.. I just couldn't figure out which firmware. That Ubuntu package had some broadcom stuff in it, but I doubt that's it, and it also had a .tgz file that had more than 100 more *.fw's.. all of which were Greek to me. Tongue

So... how do go about configuring this channel? Is that in the RT2870STA.dat file?
