My rt73 chipset shows no noticeable improvement using the test v4. Similar to Olivia's experience of the standard Hardy module - I can connect and surf the web, but the speed is variable and really slow ~80kbps (WPA).

I'm back using the legacy rt73 module which compiles and works really well on the Hardy kernel. Olivia, if you aren't having any success with the rt73usb module and really need wireless to work then compiling the rt73 module is a not-too-tricky option. Slightly onerous that network-manager doesn't work with it - though WICD has "Ralink Legacy" support as an alternative.
