Description
The fact is that a lot of time has passed, a lot of patches have come out, and the driver is still frankly bad: disconnecting clients, missing Internet, kernel warning and kernel panic.
The driver in the current implementation is terrible, it is not comfortable to use it. I am ready to help developers by becoming a tester, like many active participants here. The driver must be rewrite.
Hope for understanding.

Research direction
The issue does not name files, tests, or an entry point. Start by locating the mt76 driver implementation and reproducing the reported client disconnects, missing Internet, warnings, or kernel panics. Done would require a defined rewrite scope and verification that the reported failures are resolved.
