They perform so well > or so badly like those that are already in the driver(rt2800usb). This is an expectation. The mentioned WUSB600Nv2 is one proof, that it isn't (always) enough to successfully identify chips and derive, that it behaves like other brands using the same chip. There have been brands with this chip, which have been working fine (supposedly), but this special brand didn't work at all here - even though it uses an already known chip. >> Linksys WUSB600Nv2 e.g. works fine with the legacy driver, but only >> limited (if at all) with rt2800usb yet. > > <http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=blob;f=drivers/net/wireless/rt2x00/Kconfig;h=299c3879582da14e12ca00d7f11184da8c61bed7;hb=HEAD#l83> > > config RT2800USB_RT35XX > bool "rt2800usb - Include support for rt35xx devices ( *EXPERIMENTAL* )" > depends on *EXPERIMENTAL* Chance :-) rt2860 (PCI) chipset (rt2800pci) isn't experimental but is nevertheless broken since 3.2 [1]. I'm seeing a fundamental problem (but not just here :-)) regarding QA. I can't see any QA if there is done any change. Ok, I don't know all and maybe, I'm blind, too. But I'm willing to learn . That's why I'm wondering: When are all these appropriate devices going to be tested? I think, a good point would be during development and not after they have been released (means: "experimental" was removed). If the ID's are committed, it should be ensured, that they really behave as expected.
