Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: linux-source-2.6.17
Asus WL-167G USB wireless stick with RT73 isn't recognized by Ubuntu
6.10.
I guess the device IDs are missing in the rt2x00 driver code.
>From the Asus linux driver instructions (legacy driver):
---------------------------------------------------
For rt73, please add ASUS IDs (red words) in the rtmp_def.h.
#define RT73_USB_DEVICES { \
...
{USB_DEVICE(0x0B05,0x1723)}, /* ASUS */ \
{USB_DEVICE(0x0B05,0x1724)}, /* ASUS */ \
...
---------------------------------------------------
The Asus WL-167G can contain multiple different chipsets:
>From the Asus linux driver instructions (legacy driver):
---------------------------------------------------
Vendor id predicted driver directory
0B05 1706 rt25USB
0B05 1707 rt25USB
0B05 1723 rt73
0B05 1724 rt73

The one I have is:
