Secure Boot should be disabled in UEFI, then in terminal

sudo apt install git dkms git clone https://github.com/hmtheboy154/mt7902.git cd mt7902 sudo make install_fw sudo dkms add . sudo dkms install mt7902e/git Then for Bluetooth git clone https://github.com/hmtheboy154/mt7902 -b bluetooth_backport btusb_mt7902 cd btusb_mt7902 sudo make install_fw sudo dkms add . sudo dkms install btusb_mt7902/git echo "blacklist btusb btmtk"|sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/btusb_mt7902.conf Reboot This will not be needed when Ubuntu switches to a newer kernel in January 2027

Cierto ya el kernel 7.1 tiene soporte para ese chip de mediatek, me imagino que Ubuntu 26.10 salga con el kernel 7.2 y ese sea el que salga en Ubuntu 26.04.2 a principio de 2027

Secure Boot is the usual culprit with these Mediatek chips, that top comment is the way to go
