See drivers/staging/rt2870/rt2870.h: {USB_DEVICE(0x148F,0x2770)}, /* Ralink */ \ I don't know the status of that driver and whether it will be converted to a regular driver any time soon, but since it's a modern device, chances are high. > 2.ZEW2507 > http://www.zonetusa.com/products-54.aspx > > ZEW2507 uses Chipset Ralink RT2571 + RT2528 > > I am assuming this device can be easily configured in linux using > hostapd.please correct me if i am wrong.
