Help installing COMFAST CF-WU782AC wifi adapter

Hardware Questions and Recommendations
1

based on this post I went out and bought a new Wifi adapter COMFAST CF-WU782AC

Now how I even install this thing I dont know
Openwrt Raspberry Pi 4

2

I've installed all these drivers as mentioned in this post but still cant get the adapter recognized

Did you also do the post processing from the 2nd link ?

Hi frollic

I dont even know what that is I've installed drivers rebooted and hoped for the best
the usb wireless adapter dosent show up on the wireless menu of Openwrt I think those drivers might be in correct for the Comcast CF-WU782AC wifi adapter

then you should probably reread that 2nd thread.

I added the code from the 2nd post but still nothing showing up

/etc/usb-mode.json
"0e8d:7612": {
"*": {
"t_vendor": 3725,
"t_product": [ 30226 ],
"mode": "StandardEject",
"msg": [ ]
}
},

Hey, you referred my post.
Can you do a hotplug (take device out and in again during run)

IIRC these are all the steps you need:

opkg update
opkg install kmod-mt76x2u usb-modeswitch kmod-usb-net kmod-usb3 kmod-usb-core usbutils
reboot
lsusb
usbmode -s -v
lsusb

If you see that device didn't switch from 0e8d:2870 to 0e8d:7612 just unplug it from USB port and plug again

I did this on OpenWrt 23.05.0 (r23497-6637af95aa) and it works without any config modification
