I had this problem on an HP envy dv7, running latest Raring release (thought I'd take a chance on running the pre-release beta), which uses a 3.8.0.x kernel series.
0a:00.0 Network controller: Ralink corp. RT3290 Wireless 802.11n 1T/1R PCIe 0a:00.1 Bluetooth: Ralink corp. RT3290 Bluetooth Solution for me was in #8 above: # git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dwmw2/linux-firmware.git # cp linux-firmware/rt3290.bin /lib/firmware/ # shutdown -r now Hopefully the "linux-firmware" .deb will eventually include this. Raring is using 1.104, which doesn't include rt3290.bin yet. This has got wireless working correctly, however there are still 2 minor (for me) problems. 1) Bluetooth isn't working 2) The "airplane mode" keyboard toggle doesn't do anything -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1049466 Title: Need support of Ralink RT3290 wifi support To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1049466/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
