Briliant, I hope you can make a image for Orange Pi 2 mini with MT7601U driver.

I believe the Kernel 4.1 at least on other Allwinner boards has support for MT7601, just give it time. That very cheap wireless dongle has caused me more headaches than saving a few dollars was worth, it'll be great when it's just supported everywhere.

I managed to install the drivers myself on a Raspberry Pi 2 with Ubuntu Mate. I guess you could do that too for the Orange Pi.
I used this driver: https://github.com/porjo/mt7601
Follow the instructions here:

You're right dburner, I believe compiling the mt7601 drivers requires the kernel headers. @loboris, where can we find those, are they on git somewhere?
