"searching google for ralink rt2500 +ubuntu brings up a lot of sites. 
This one seems right on target;

I did not read that link very closely and was not sure that it fit your 
circumstance. That is why I also suggested the google search for ralink 
rt2500. I know from my experience that some howtos are easier to 
understand and follow than others, and are more relevant.

I am sorry I did not repost the link when I quoted it. It would have 
prevented misunderstandings. My bad.

I hope someone can help you solve your problem.
