How to get MediaTeK MT7902 support? [SOLVED]

Hey there, I had just purchased a new laptop, a Asus Vivobook 16, and I seem to notice that Arch doesn't play well with it, but Windows (dual boot) seems to like it just fine.

Would there be any possibility to get it working? the only way I am able to get the thing online is with a USB dongle...

Cheers!

I don't think that device is supported yet: https://linux-hardware.org/?id=pci:14c3-7902-1a3b-5520

woah, those results don't show anything good. Better keep that USB dongle handy, should probably buy a 5Ghz module anyway, my dad gave me an old one.

Thanks much, and have a good one.

Hi! I just prove it and it not work (at least for me)... It would be a better solution to buy a 5Ghz module

If anyone prove it and works, please let me know!
