[Bug 543836] Re: rt2870 wireless card cannot connect to WPA network

[pauls]

There is a backports package called linux-backports-modules-wireless-
lucid-generic and the rt2870sta driver in it will connect to wpa2-psk
encrypted networks.  So you can install that backport package to get a
fix.  I still think it's necessary to manually add the
/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf change to blacklist rt2800usb as well as
create the /etc/Wireless/RT2870STA/RT2870STA.dat file with the word
Default in it.

On my system this works.

By the way, that backports package also contains an update rt2800usb
module.  I tried using it and it still will not connect to my wpa2-psk
network.

However, this package should get updated as new changes are made to the
wireless stack, so using it will give us a shot.
