Research direction
Start by examining the existing MT7603 PCI driver support and the USB device identified by lsusb as 0e8d:7603. Determine the kernel integration and hardware behavior needed for USB support; done means the adapter works with a maintained kernel driver rather than the incompatible out-of-tree drivers described.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
There is only Driver for the MT7603e which is the pci version but the usb one doesnt have any driver. The mediatek driver that they used to give is from 2014 and doesnt work on anything above kernel 5.15, the out of tree ones are from 2023 and dont work on anything above kernel 6.17.x and they are buggy even on those versions. if its possible to add support for the mt7603u (Usb wifi adapter not pci)
This is what the lsusb shows when the usb is plugged in
