sudo modprobe -l | grep wireless also show it present on my system and I don't even have a compatible card, I don't think it's necessary to stop it since it appears to be there whether it's needed or not. If yo're having trouble getting your USB WiFi card to work, I think that I may have found the answer: It appears that rt73usb uses non-free software and has been de-blobbed: RT73USB - Ralink rt2501/rt73 (USB) support drivers/net/wireless/rt2x00/rt73usb.h: removed blobs drivers/net/wireless/rt2x00/rt73usb.c: removed blobs And here's the license for rt73: http://rt2x00.serialmonkey.com/wiki/index.php/Firmware_license
