MT7922 Support (or other AP capable wifi card)

General questions
1

Hello,

I was wondering if VyOS supports MT7922 card for M2 and also AP mode? My wifi requirements are rather low and I was looking for wifi card that could do AP which also won’t cause me too much issues with configuration.

if MT7922 is not good, then which card would suffice? Obviously i would like to have newest technologies but if that means sacrificing stability then id rather look for alternatives. My devies are mostly 2.4G only.

I dont think so if the linux driver is named MT7921E:

The driver causes kernel panics so Im guessing a new attempt will be made with kernel 6.8 once thats being used:

Might be related patches (no idea if they have anything to do with the kernel panics seen in 6.6):

As far as I am aware MT7921 is different than MT7922 but i could be wrong.

if not this card then which one would be working out of the box?

Sure but the driver is named mt7921e according to:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/tree/drivers/net/wireless/mediatek/mt76/mt792x.h?h=v6.10.4

Ok then is there any alternative that is sure to work? Does not have to be wifi 6
