Hi,

I've tested a USB wifi dongle but can't work. It's usbconfig
is as follows:

ugen0.2: <vendor 0x148f product 0x7601> at usbus0, cfg=0 md=HOST spd=HIGH (480Mbps) pwr=ON (160mA)

bLength = 0x0012
bDescriptorType = 0x0001
bcdUSB = 0x0201
bDeviceClass = 0x0000 <Probed by interface class>
bDeviceSubClass = 0x0000
bDeviceProtocol = 0x0000
bMaxPacketSize0 = 0x0040
idVendor = 0x148f
idProduct = 0x7601
bcdDevice = 0x0000
iManufacturer = 0x0001 <MediaTek>
iProduct = 0x0002 <802.11 n WLAN>
iSerialNumber = 0x0003 <1.0>
bNumConfigurations = 0x0001

So I tried to work with it by adding vendor entry to usbdevs
and if_run.c:

and reconfigured kernel and set rc.conf:

then rebooted. But can't start as DHCP client:

dmesg shows:

This means there is not a driver for RT7601?

and OS revision is r328126.
Is there any idea?

Best regards.
