** Tags added: apport-collected

** Description changed:

  I was able to get this working following the steps below, but would like
  to get this included in ubunu for out of the box support.
  
  1) Download the RT2870USB driver (version 2.3.0.0) from the Ralink
  website:
  http://www.ralinktech.com/license_us.php?n=2&p=0&t=U0wyRnpjMlYwY3k4eU1EQTVMekV5THpFMUwyUnZkMjVzYjJGa05UYzBNVFExTkRNNU5TNWllakk5UFQxU1ZESTROekJmVEdsdWRYaFRWRUZmVmpJdU15NHdMakF1ZEdGeUxuUmhjZz09Qw%3D%3D
  
  2) modify os/linux/config.mk: set 'HAS_WPA_SUPPLICANT=y' and
  'HAS_NATIVE_WPA_SUPPLICANT_SUPPORT=y'
  
  3) modify the common/rtusb_dev_id.c file to include the device id:
  {USB_DEVICE(0x0411,0x0148)}, /* Buffalo WLI-UC-G300HP*/
  
  4) make, make install
  
  5) add the following to /etc/modules:
  rt2870sta
  alias ra0 rt2870sta
  
  
  The device now works.
