its mt9722 and uses driver mt9721e. found more info after some help after a post i made on reddit but still not solved https://www.reddit.com/r/archlinux/comments/1mb8xja/wifi_adapter_recognized_by_pc_but_not_at_the_same/. tldr dmesg says

lsmod says mt9721e is use by 0 and mt9721_common is used by mt9721e and mt972x_lib is used by both
