Public bug reported:

Having trouble to get my wireless up and running. I'm using a RT2570 USB
wireless card and Dapper. Wireless is enabled with WPA TKIP

1. If I issue "sudo iwlist rausb0 scan" it does not give any results.
2. dmesg gives: [4294696.168000] rausb0 (WE) : Driver using old /proc/net/wireless support, please fix driver !
3. This /etc/network/interfaces let's the full PC hang during boot up

auto rausb0
iface rausb0 inet dhcp
pre-up ifconfig rausb0 up
pre-up ifconfig rausb0 down
pre-up iwconfig rausb0 essid "???"
pre-up iwconfig rausb0 mode Managed
pre-up iwpriv rausb0 auth 3
pre-up iwpriv rausb0 enc 3
pre-up iwpriv rausb0 wpapsk "???"
pre-up ifconfig rausb0 up
