This pen is a wlan usb adapter from Asus. I know that this usb pen works "out of the box" with other distros. But i want to install it on archlinux.
Giving lsmod:
Bus 001 Device 004: ID 0b05:1723 ASUSTek Computer, Inc. WL-167G v2 802.11g Adapter [ralink]
Searching the ID i found that i need the driver RT73
So i downloaded it but at the moment of compiling it i get an error:
[garret@desktop Module]$ sudo make
Password:
make -C /lib/modules/2.6.27-ARCH/build SUBDIRS=/home/garret/RT73_Linux_STA_Drv1.0.4.0/Module modules
make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.6.27-ARCH'
scripts/Makefile.build:46: *** CFLAGS was changed in "/home/garret/RT73_Linux_STA_Drv1.0.4.0/Module/Makefile". Fix it to use EXTRA_CFLAGS. Stop.
make[1]: *** [_module_/home/garret/RT73_Linux_STA_Drv1.0.4.0/Module] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.6.27-ARCH'
make: *** [all] Error 2
[garret@desktop Module]$
What's wrong?

It should work with in-kernel rt73usb. Remember to install firmware (pacman -S rt2x00-rt71w-fw).

I have this adapter and it works fine with the kernels rt2x00 (rt73usb) drivers. Dont try to mess around with the cvs version of rt73 unless you have a good reason to because you have to blacklist the rt2x00 modules (which get loaded automatically) for it to work. Just install the firmware like lucke suggested.
