Comment 33 for bug 362875

Hi Dax,

Sorry for the delay on this. I've noted these problems on the rt2x00-users mailing list, where development for the supported Ralink drivers takes place. For help in debugging, they've suggested you try the official Ralink driver (a.k.a. "legacy driver") found here:
http://www.ralinktech.com/en/04_support/support.php?sn=501

I believe you would need the "RT2501USB(RT73:RT2571W/RT2573/RT2671)" package. It's freely available, based on a simple usage agreement, but it is not really "maintained" (the in-kernel driver is the main support) and it is certainly a "use at your own risk" situation. It takes some work to properly extract, compile, and insert the driver into your system...if you want to proceed and have trouble, perhaps I can help.

Anyway, the driver maintainers would be interested in seeing if your problems still exist on the legacy driver.

BTW, sample pieces of the mailing list conversation are at the URLs below. There's not much progress on this issue, it seems:
