After very successful 10.2 GM installations (I consider it the best available distribution around right now) I had to learn that the included rt73usb module should better be blacklisted: 1. Firmware is not included anyway and there is no warning it's not there when loading the module. 2. This module is highly instable and brings the adapter to virtual standstills on various machines (and various distros), only way out then: replug the adapter. Only good news: it doesn't bring down the whole system. 3. During uptimes the performance bounces between 1/3 and 1/10 of the net speed one gets when either booting the same machine into Windows or into any ndiswrapper configuration. I understand that for situations where one needs to shuffle a few MBs occasionally via WLAN, rt73usb might be sufficient. But in non-toy situations?
