RT53xx support in rt2x00 was contributed by Ralink employees, however as we
always do we give it state experimental until it has proven itself.
Unfortunately it doesn't seem to work for you.
Does the driver emit any diagnostics in dmesg?
Also do you have the exact hardware details, i.e. Bus-type (usb or pcie),
chipset as reported by hardware in dmesg, etc?

Of course it's not ok to send these malformed beacons out but I didn't have
time to look into this further yet. A quick "solution" would be to just disable
AP mode on these devices to, or to disable Multi-BSSID mode on them.
I first need to reproduce this issue on a card similar to yours. I've got
one here but since I just moved I don't even have internet connectivity
at home yet :(
I'll try to find some time soon ...

Hi all,
I'm involved in project based upon RT2880 module. The project is
mainly oriented in customizing existing user-space application but
since I have hardware on my desk and a will to learn, I wonder if
there is any space to contribute to rt2x00 project?
Running kernel is dated one (2.4.x), and proprietary Ralink driver is used.
Since I'm new to linux kernel programming, for now I can only think of
doing some testing depending on how well RT2880 is supported by the
main line kernel.
Any advice is appreciated.
Best regards,
Bojan

Have I missed a patch, or have you forgotten to submit a patch?
This change doesn't apply, as in my rt2x00.git checkout
there is no if-statement on this location, and rt2800_txdone_entry
is called unconditionally.

Uhh, I don't know, let me recheck. My patches were on top of wireless-testing
instead of rt2x00 git. Maybe something differed between those ...

Yups, there was a patch from Stanislaw [1] that introduced this change.
Are you going to rebase rt2x00-git to wireless-testing or should I resend
based on current rt2x00 git?
Thanks,

Ah ok, don't worry I'll rebase rt2x00.git.

Every 10 seconds, more or less, it said the router hasen't answered
within 500ms so I get disconnected.
I juste have switched back to the rt2x00 kernel module thinking I would
be able to copy/past the exact dmesg diagnostic but I didn't get any
error or wireless instability.
Might be fixed in a recent Kernel release?

lsusb:
Bus 006 Device 002: ID 148f:2000 Ralink Technology, Corp.
dmesg:
[ 7186.064818] usb 6-1: USB disconnect, device number 2
[ 7203.136233] usb 6-1: new full speed USB device number 3 using ohci_hcd
It's the built-in card shipped with the laptop HP Pavillon DM1 3130 (in
Europe).
By the way, since I have disassembly my laptop I'm quit sure the WiFi
chipset is on a mini PCI card, so I'm surprise my system recognize it as
a USB device.
Cheers.

Hi Sonny,
I think that's a Bluetooth + WiFi combo device and the 148f:2000 is the
Bluetooth device.
You can run lspci to check the PCI-E device id.
Besides, can you try it after disable the Bluetooth function?
