I was able to get the driver to work with kernel version 2.6.31 using the kernel's drivers and the firmware provided by ralink. THE STOCK UBUNTU KERNEL AND DRIVERS WILL NOT WORK.
Also, the order in which you configure the RT61 card has changed. Before, you had to turn on the device with ifconfig wlan0 up to configure the device with iwconfig, Now, it'll say the device is busy and won't let you configure it. So, issue ifconfig wlan0 down, and now you can configure your wireless card with iwconfig. Once when you're done, issue ifconfig wlan0 up, and wait about a minute or two, and then start up your DHCP client to get your IP address (the network link won't start up right away, esp. if using encryption). -- Upgrading to Jaunty breaks rt61pci wireless https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/366170 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
