[Bug 134660] Re: Ralink rt2400 / rt2500 / rt2570 / rt61 / rt73 do not work out of the box in Gutsy/Hardy

[Kaminix]

I'm on a RT2500 card. This is how it looks in lshw under Gutsy:
           *-network
                description: Wireless interface
                product: RT2500 802.11g Cardbus/mini-PCI

In Gutsy my network worked well, it had some troubles but overall I was
quite happy with it. Then I upgraded to Gutsy, and now I'm experiencing
the troubles described in this report. The speeds are unbelievably slow,
three times slower than I was on Gutsy and almost 10 times slower than
my sister's (we can't loose to VISTA!) according to speedtest.nl
(conducted with in Gutsy via the Live CD...). If I use download
something under Hardy and ping my router at the same time I get ping
times like 25 000ms and packetlosses of up to 25% it seems.

I upgraded from Hardy via the upgrade tool by the way, but it all worked
under Gutsy.
