- Troubleshooting when upgrading kernel
###3.1 Install script
If you installed the driver with the install script, you will have to reinstall the drivers when you upgrade your kernel.
To do so, run:
./uninstall
make clean
./installIf you don't uninstall and clean, you will face problems like this:
modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'mt7630e': Exec format error
modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'mt76xx': Exec format error
###3.2 DKMS
If you install with dkms then you won't need to uninstall/install for minor kernel updates. Major kernel updates may still need update/uninstall/install though.

Some patches for extended kernel support are taken from https://github.com/benjarobin/MT7630E
Note: Even though the original source was taken from kuba-moo, it no longer resembles that of the original. If you want to apply a patch that works with other sources, be ware that the line number and content may or may not match i.e you will have to be careful applying patches.
