Hallo, I recently bought an Asus USB-N53 Dual Band Wireless Network Adapter and noticed that I have to enable CONFIG_RT2800USB_UNKNOWN to get it working. With this option enabled everything is working fine as far as I have tested. So I'd line to get things right and move this device out of CONFIG_RT2800USB_UNKNOWN to where it belongs. Here is the information I have about this device, feel tree to ask if you need anything addition.
