Is there any further update on this?
The solution from @fzinken worked for me too (Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ with TP-Link Archer T1U, running 4.14.34-4-osmc), and I edited the /etc/rc.local
with the following lines (corresponding to the VID):
sudo modprobe mt7610u_sta
echo "2357 0105" | sudo tee /sys/module/mt7610u_sta/drivers/usb:rt2870/new_id
Do I need to submit a push request too to get this included in the next update? Thanks!
