    FATAL: Module rt3070sta not found.
    Evidently rt3070sta was removed from Lucid 10.04. As there is no known simple solution, we are going to try an experiment. Please do:
    Code:
    sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
    Remove these lines:
    Code:
    blacklist rt2800usb
    blacklist rt2x00usb
    blacklist rt2x00lib
    Next, do:
    Code:
    sudo gedit /etc/udev/rules.d/network_drivers.rules
    Change the file as I have highlighted to remove rt3070sta and add in rt2800usb:
    Code:
    ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="07d1", ATTR{idProduct}=="3c16", RUN+="/sbin/modprobe -qba rt2800usb"
    Now do:
    Code:
    sudo gedit etc/modprobe.d/network_drivers.conf
    Amend to:
    Code:
    install rt2800usb /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install rt2800usb $CMDLINE_OPTS; /bin/echo "07d1 3c16" > /sys/bus/usb/drivers/rt2800/new_id
    Proofread all changes carefully, being sure to click Save before you close gedit.

    Reboot and let us know the outcome.

    this is really weird, So I got through most of the code. but right when I did sudo gedit etc/modprobe.d/network_drivers.conf it opened in gedit and their was nothing in the file, no text at all. so I proceed to enter "install rt2800usb /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install rt2800usb $CMDLINE_OPTS; /bin/echo "07d1 3c16" > /sys/bus/usb/drivers/rt2800/new_id" and then press save. Well on the top it says "Could not find the file /home/net-op/etc/modprobe.d/network_drivers.conf." in Red. So I navigate through the explorer Home/net-op/etc/modprobe.d and in the modprobe.d folder their is "network_drivers.conf. Weird right.

    "Could not find the file /home/net-op/etc/modprobe.d/network_drivers.conf."
    It is NOT supposed to be in /home/net-op/etc/modprobe.d/network_drivers.conf. It is supposed to be in /etc/modprobe.d/network_drivers.conf. There is a difference. Please retrace your steps and make any needed corrections.

    This is also incorrect: sudo gedit etc/modprobe.d/network_drivers.conf

    It is supposed to be sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/network_drivers.conf

    Again, there is a crucial difference. Please proofread carefully.

    Dear user,
    I read all this topic from start to the end.
    I have the same adapter as you. I think you must completely demolished your systems default configuration by trying various commands and modification. But you can start a new approach by using Ubuntu 10.04 live CD and repeat all commands in it. Once you tried it, you may see the USB adapter will start blinking by defaut. If not, You can test it with a windows (I'm sorry but this may be last chance!) to see if it's really working or some chips are burnt in it! If it starts to blink, it means that 10.04 is recognized your adapter as a rt2800 thing.
    Now we need to black list 2800 driver to prevent ubuntu recognize our adapter as a 2800 one.
    The second problem is that Ubuntu has no other drivers for it!
    Please tell me if you solve this issue.
    Thanks

    Wow man! I must first tell you that I tried ndiswrapper and the desired driver and it demolished my system! The original windows driver will not work on linux. You can see the resold of dmesg command for that.
    Here I created a post for this problem and other problem too.
    In this address I finally figured out how to compile, install and modprobe the opensource driver downloaded from ralink website and sort it to work properly:
    http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php...6&postcount=12

    There I described to blacklist you must add those mentioned lines at the end of a file named /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf not by entering commands directly. You can simply enter this command to open that file and write blacklists there:
    Code:
    gksudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
    This is for the black list thing.
    Now after compiling and installing the linux driver, the main problem is that Network-manager will not support WPA security. Which is the only really secure option for wireless in Ubuntu!
    please let me now if you figured that out.
