Any station will by default show 'Not associated' as long as you don't have any clients connected to it. Did you try connecting to it?

5

Can't connect, dont even see it in networks on my phone

6

Did you install the wpad package and secure your AP with wpa or wpa-2?

7

Yes, i've also tryed Hostpad instead of wpad and i also tryed this usb-dongle on win-10 it works perfect as AP! Feels like i missed something, worst thing it works on Scan and can connect, AP isn't available..

8

I don't understand exactly what is your problem, but you said you don't see the network listed on your phone and you have checked hide ESSID.
What about unchecking it?

9

Its's Unchecked, i've just trying ANYthing including straight connect.., i've also reinstalled it and driver couple times, so everytime it was unchecked. sorry!

I'm quite sure it's a missing module, but honestly I don't know what to install.
nonetheless you might try this:

opkg list | grep kmod | grep usb
11

after seeing your second post I just want to make sure you installed kmod-mt76x02-usb and inserted the necessary modules.

12

i've tryed install kmod-mt76x02-usb but not helped, why install it's while my usb dongle is 7601, not 02? anyway didnt help..

13

Sorry you are right. I don't have more ideas.

14

The mt7601u kernel driver does not support AP mode yet.

or you can try that: https://github.com/olivluca/mt7601-openwrt

15

can you explain me how to use it? should i build it?

16

sure. you should try to make the openwrt version drive from the linux kernel drive

17

tray

kmod-mt76x2u

18

Hi, was MT7601 successful in AP (WLAN) mode?

19

nope, i've just bought intel nic wich is work perfectly...

20
