Hi.
So I seem to have the usual problem with the kernel drivers vs the ralink drivers, and I'm trying to compile and install the ralink drivers and am getting errors.
I've got two RT2800USB wifi keys:
1) A D-link DWA-160, HW Rev B1
2) Rosewill RNX-N100
Both "just work," but only at in the b/g band, and I'd like to get them working as N devices.
I've got a fully updated, brand new installation, running KDE, kernel 3.8.11, headers are installed.
Re the drivers, I've changed the two options in config.mk for WPA supplicant to "y".
When I "make" I get this output:

The driver I'm trying to install is: RT2870_Linux_STA_v2.4.0.1
Once I get the driver built I pretty much know what to do (blacklist rt2800usb, etc).
Thanks,
john

After much more searching and tweaking of google search terms, I found this:
http://bernaerts.dyndns.org/linux/229-u … a160-revb2
Seems this one requires more than just the WPA supplicant changes.
All maked and make installed now.
