[SOLVED] D-Link DWL-G122 C1 USB problem

Ok so i have PC with this USB wifi card and 1st time fresh Arch linux. Right now i have internet trought ethernet cable from my notebook (shared) until i configure wifi.

Frist i tried Beginners' Guide
tried this:

# iwconfig
# ifconfig wlan0 up

got this: SIOCSIFFLAGS: No such file or directory

so then

# dmesg | grep firmware

got:

rt73usb 1-3:1.0: firmware: requesting rt73.bin
phy0 -> rt2x00lib_request_firmware: Error - Failed to request Firmware

So i go to Wireless Setup wiki and did: (i also did "# pacman -S wireless_tools" but i already had it)

# lsusb

found this

Bus 001 Device 002: ID 07d1:3c03 D-Link System DWL-G122 802.11g Adapter(rev.C1) [ralink rt73]

Looked up for section rt2x00 because it's "Unified driver for Ralink chip-sets (replaces rt2500,rt61,rt73 etc)." and did this as asked

# pacman -S linux-firmware

and i got error

linux-firmware package not found, searching for group
error: 'linux-firmware': not found in sync db

Then i tried section "Using the new rt2x00 beta driver"

# modprobe rt73usb
# pacman -S linux-firmware

but got same error
i looked up here and my wifi is green so i think this isn't problem http://linux-wless.passys.nl/query_chip … set=Ralink
I found this topic https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=70600 but it didn't help because "# pacman -S rt2x00-rt71w-fw" said File Not found error (tried all mirrors)

What to do now?

Set up your wired network connection and run pacman -Syu linux-firmware. Then return to your wireless configuration attempt.
