[Bug 596686] [NEW] Missing driver for Buffalo WLI-UC-G300HP - need Ralink rt2870sta driver

[Dahmage]

Public bug reported:

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.
