It appears that Mediatek is having a hard time keeping up with demand for the mt7612u chipset and that can be seen in both the increases in prices and out-of-stock situations for adapters based on this chipset. What is new? Some retailers are continuing to have inventory problems and prices of some adapters continue to climb. Many people find that using adapters with in-kernel drivers is a better solution than using an adapter that requires drivers to be found (not easy to find the right driver), downloaded, compiled (confusing for those that are not developers), installed, fixed (not fun) and reinstalled. With adapters that use in-kernel drivers, simply plug the adapter in and it will work. These drivers are maintained in the kernel without the need for user intervention, although, if you want to help with the code, you are welcome to do so.
These adapters use drivers that are already in the Linux kernel.
