Hello,

It looks like the mt7921u driver is not provided in the Rocky 10.0 kernel.

```auto
[afountain@41cdae27a74d 6.12.0-55.37.1.el10_0.x86_64]$ cat .config | grep MT7921
CONFIG_MT7921_COMMON=m
CONFIG_MT7921E=m
# CONFIG_MT7921S is not set
# CONFIG_MT7921U is not set

```

Is there a good way to add this module to my machine, other than by building a new kernel with CONFIG\_MT7921U=m specified in the configuration?

Try asking ELRepo to provide a kmod package for the mt7921u driver.

In the meantime, you can use ELRepo’s kernel-ml. It has this driver enabled.

Actually it is already available. Try the kmod-mt76\_usb package.

Thank you toracat! That worked like a charm 🙂

```auto
sudo dnf install mt7xxx-firmware elrepo-release
sudo dnf install kmod-mt76_usb

```

Thanks for this info. I should add this as a dependency to the RPM for the next time we rebuild.
