Your usb adaptor appears to be Bus 002 Device 004: ID 148f:761a Ralink Technology, Corp - This corresponds to a mediatek chip. Mediateks' download page is here: mediatek.com/en/downloads although I can't find anything further of use other than the rumoured driver for that adaptor is called mt7650u_sta.

NOTE: There are official sources for the drivers - as noted by some other answer here - but those don't (usually(?)) compile/work out of the box.
Also, the newest version doesn't work for me (Debian 8 with standard x64 kernel:3.16.0-4-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.16.39-1 (2016-12-30) x86_64 GNU/Linux
) - what does (still) work for me is commit 4606187110b323c272aed504144ee759b31af8ac.
There is an easier solution than trying to use the manufacturer's source (taken from this (German) site):
Just run (with the device being unplugged)
sudo apt-get install git build-essential
mkdir ~/src
cd ~/src
git clone https://github.com/Myria-de/mt7610u_wifi_sta_v3002_dpo_20130916.git
cd mt7610u_wifi_sta_v3002_dpo_20130916
make clean
make
sudo make install
and reboot. As indicated above, you might want to git checkout 4606187110b323c272aed504144ee759b31af8ac before running make and make install. For instance, the newest version
- Caused it to freeze
- Didn't integrate with NetworkManager, ...
and who knows what else.
Worked for me, I also have the Archer T2U, with the same USB-device. I run another system ( I used this with LMDE, kernel 3.11, now I'm on Debian (see above)), however the solution I have linked was tried with the following setups:
- Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS, linux kernel 3.13.0.49, gcc 4.8.2
- Ubuntu 15.04, linux kernel 3.19.0-15, gcc 4.9.2
So there might be a good chance, that this will work for you.
The author(s) simply modified the MT7610U linux driver from the MediaTek homepage to compile for your device as well as a couple of other ones based on the same chipset.
If you feel like it, you can probably run some command to diff the linked source and the one from MediaTek since directory trees and source file are probably no different from the MediaTek source.
UPDATE: There is another site that may be helpful, if you want to go into fixing the original source yourself instead of following the above instructions:
http://hprath.com/2014/06/cisco-linksys-ae6000-ac580-media-tek-mt7610u-mt7630u-mt7650u-linux-x64-driver-patch/

The solution depends on the availability of a certain git repository. The same argument you are giving could be given about any solution referring to some online resource. Yet, it wouldn't make sense to downvote every answer referring to online resources that could change, would it?

There is now a linux driver for this device on the TP-LINK website: http://www.tp-link.com/lb/download/Archer-T2U_V1.html#Driver

For anybody looking to use this device on Linux recently, don't bother with the official drivers. They are for a very outdated kernel and the instructions look like they were written in Chinese and put into Google Translate. I had moderate success with dkms and these drivers after runningsudo service network-manager restart, but after a few months the driver started to freeze the system unless the adapter was unplugged.

This device currently does not work with linux.
The MediaTek MT7610 USB driver is the closest match for this device, however as of version 3.0.0.4_20130913 it does not directly support the T2U. I added the USB ID of the T2U to the driver, which allowed me to find networks but not to connect to any one of them. It looks like receiving of packets works, but sending or some part of network association fails.
Unfortunately, I had no success with ndiswrapper either. The suggested method is to get ndiswrapper installed, add the XP driver, and use that:
apt-get install ndiswrapper-source ndisgtk
dkms autoinstall ndiswrapper
ndiswrapper -i Driver Files/Windows XP 64bit/RT2870.inf
modprobe ndiswrapper
However, both the driver supplied on CD-ROM and the official 140523 download fails to load with ndiswrapper on a 64-bit machine:
ndiswrapper (import:232): unknown symbol: ntoskrnl.exe:'ExEventObjectType'
ndiswrapper (import:232): unknown symbol: ntoskrnl.exe:'__chkstk'
ndiswrapper (load_sys_files:200): couldn't prepare driver 'rt2870'
ndiswrapper (load_wrap_driver:103): couldn't load driver rt2870; check system log for messages from 'loadndisdriver'
This approach might work for you on 32-bit Linux, or maybe not.

I have a HP Pavilion 360 notebook. The solution above with the code (given), worked for me, too. The signal seems weak for the moment, but stable. I will test it in the upcoming weeks:
mkdir ~/src
cd ~/src
git clone https://github.com/Myria-de/mt7610u_wifi_sta_v3002_dpo_20130916.git
cd mt7610u_wifi_sta_v3002_dpo_20130916
make clean
make
sudo make install

Thank you for your interest in this question.
Because it has attracted low-quality or spam answers that had to be removed, posting an answer now requires 10 reputation on this site (the association bonus does not count).
Would you like to answer one of these unanswered questions instead?

If you feel like it, you can probably run some command to diff the linked source and the one from MediaTek since directory trees and source file are probably no different from the MediaTek source.
UPDATE: There is another site that may be helpful, if you want to go into fixing the original source yourself instead of following the above instructions:

The solution depends on the availability of a certain git repository. The same argument you are giving could be given about any solution referring to some online resource. Yet, it wouldn't make sense to downvote every answer referring to online resources that could change, would it?

I have, however included the commands themselves here. It's obviously more convenient this way if you don't know any German.

I can confirm this works on 15.04, 3.19.0-18-lowlatency, gcc 4.9.2, 64-bit.

There's a typo in the url of the git repo. There should not be a space in Myria-de.

There is now a linux driver for this device on the TP-LINK website: http://www.tp-link.com/lb/download/Archer-T2U_V1.html#Driver

For anybody looking to use this device on Linux recently, don't bother with the official drivers. They are for a very outdated kernel and the instructions look like they were written in Chinese and put into Google Translate. I had moderate success with dkms and these drivers after runningsudo service network-manager restart, but after a few months the driver started to freeze the system unless the adapter was unplugged.

This device currently does not work with linux.
The MediaTek MT7610 USB driver is the closest match for this device, however as of version 3.0.0.4_20130913 it does not directly support the T2U. I added the USB ID of the T2U to the driver, which allowed me to find networks but not to connect to any one of them. It looks like receiving of packets works, but sending or some part of network association fails.
Unfortunately, I had no success with ndiswrapper either. The suggested method is to get ndiswrapper installed, add the XP driver, and use that:
apt-get install ndiswrapper-source ndisgtk
dkms autoinstall ndiswrapper
ndiswrapper -i Driver Files/Windows XP 64bit/RT2870.inf
modprobe ndiswrapper
However, both the driver supplied on CD-ROM and the official 140523 download fails to load with ndiswrapper on a 64-bit machine:
ndiswrapper (import:232): unknown symbol: ntoskrnl.exe:'ExEventObjectType'
ndiswrapper (import:232): unknown symbol: ntoskrnl.exe:'__chkstk'
ndiswrapper (load_sys_files:200): couldn't prepare driver 'rt2870'
ndiswrapper (load_wrap_driver:103): couldn't load driver rt2870; check system log for messages from 'loadndisdriver'
This approach might work for you on 32-bit Linux, or maybe not.

I have a HP Pavilion 360 notebook. The solution above with the code (given), worked for me, too. The signal seems weak for the moment, but stable. I will test it in the upcoming weeks:
mkdir ~/src
cd ~/src
git clone https://github.com/Myria-de/mt7610u_wifi_sta_v3002_dpo_20130916.git
cd mt7610u_wifi_sta_v3002_dpo_20130916
make clean
make
sudo make install

Your usb adaptor appears to be Bus 002 Device 004: ID 148f:761a Ralink Technology, Corp - This corresponds to a mediatek chip. Mediateks' download page is here: mediatek.com/en/downloads although I can't find anything further of use other than the rumoured driver for that adaptor is called mt7650u_sta.
