I’ve only just had a chance to look at this (busy day). Setting up this dongle is not completely automatic, as the world regulatory domain has to be manually set sometimes. I will improve this in the future.
You may need to edit /lib/firmware/mt7610u_sta.dat. You may want to change ‘WirelessMode’ and ‘CountryCode’.

Alternatively, you can try the automatic setup code. You can try
mv /lib/firmware/mt7610u_sta.dat /lib/firmware/mt7610u_sta.dat.bak
and rebooting. When I did this, 5Ghz and 2.4Ghz networks worked for me in the UK using a Netgear R7000.
