Drivers don't compile/install on all recent kernels (3.2.4 and 3.2.6*) but are fine on 3.2.5.
* probably down to moved depmod; will try later.
EDIT added symlink per this thread and can now install .ko under 3.2.6.
I've compiled on 3.2.6-1 again i think that all fix again

]]>Anything change on from 3.2.2, new kernels that i cannot compiling drivers. I think that limited headers or remove for make driver working. Now i ignored on pacman new kernel for works full speed wifi.
]]>They work very well and at long last I can use kernel 3 with this device!

Hi, there is a better solution that poor kernel drivers and Aur drivers are too old.
First Download the latest drivers RT8070 /RT3070 /RT3370 /RT5370 /RT5372 http://www.ralinktech.com/en/04_support … hp?sn=5016
then uncompress and if you have 64bits system( if not, you haven't change anything) search on $dirinstal/os/linux/config.mk this:
ifeq ($(PLATFORM),PC)
ifneq (,$(findstring 2.4,$(LINUX_SRC)))
# Linux 2.4
CFLAGS := -D__KERNEL__ -I$(LINUX_SRC)/include -I$(RT28xx_DIR)/include -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -fno-strict-aliasing -fno-common -pipe -mpreferred-stack-boundary=2 -march=i686 -DMODULE -DMODVERSIONS -include $(LINUX_SRC)/include/linux/modversions.h $(WFLAGS)
Change mpreferred-stack-boundary=2 to 4
And change this flag with your cpu flag, see all list of all cpu supported http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/i386- … tions.html
If you use any networkmanager you must change on same file
# Support Wpa_Supplicant
HAS_WPA_SUPPLICANT=n
# Support Native WpaSupplicant for Network Maganger
HAS_NATIVE_WPA_SUPPLICANT_SUPPORT=n
all to y.
And now, compile and install
sudo su
make
make install
and then add to /etc/rc.conf this blacklist modules and force the right module
MODULES=(!rt2800usb !rt2x00usb !rt2800lib !rt2x00lib !rt2870sta rt5370sta)
And reboot and enjoy your full 300 mbits usb on latest kernel 3.1 (if you have dual band router)
