After installing Fedora 41 I found that my Mediatek MT7922 WiFi/BT mini-pci card wasn't working right. BT was working, but WiFi was only using 2.4Ghz band. It turned out the binaries for the card were present in /lib/firmware/mediatek, but they were still compressed (.zx). Specific firmware binaries: WIFI_MT7922_patch_mcu_1_1_hdr.bin WIFI_RAM_CODE_MT7922_1.bin BT_RAM_CODE_MT7922_1_1_hdr.bin Reproducible: Didn't try Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install Fedora Workstation 41 (GNOME) 2. Install latest updates... Actual Results: Mediatek MT7922 worked poorly, but kernel driver was installed: lspci -k -n -n | grep -i -A 3 -e net ✔ pcilib: Error reading /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:00:08.3/label: Operation not permitted 02:00.0 Network controller [0280]: MEDIATEK Corp. MT7922 802.11ax PCI Express Wireless Network Adapter [14c3:0616] Subsystem: Lenovo Device [17aa:e0c6] Kernel driver in use: mt7921e Kernel modules: mt7921e Expected Results: Mediatek MT7922 should allow for use of 5 and 6Ghz band use. After decompressing said binaries, giving them executable permissions and rebooting, everything worked fine. This github repo set me on the right course: https://github.com/morrownr/USB-WiFi/blob/main/home/How_to_Install_Firmware_for_Mediatek_based_USB_WiFi_adapters.md
