The only workaround I rustled up is the above mentioned one. Thats odd, in compar-wireless, it already contains the lines: #ifdef CONFIG_RT2800USB_RT30XX <..snip..> /* Ralink */ { USB_DEVICE(0x148f, 0x2070), USB_DEVICE_DATA(&rt2800usb_ops) }, { USB_DEVICE(0x148f, 0x3070), USB_DEVICE_DATA(&rt2800usb_ops) }, { USB_DEVICE(0x148f, 0x3071), USB_DEVICE_DATA(&rt2800usb_ops) }, { USB_DEVICE(0x148f, 0x3072), USB_DEVICE_DATA(&rt2800usb_ops) }, <..snip..> #endif So adding the USB ID does not need to be added.
