 If you have a Ralink chip in an USB device and that chip is a RT2570 or RT73 (RT73 is also as RT2571 and RT2573), you need the "rt2570" or "rt73" driver.  "rt2500" driver is only for PCI/PCMCIA devices. If you have a Ralink chip in an USB device and that chip is a RT2570 or RT73 (RT73 is also as RT2571 and RT2573), you need the "rt2570" or "rt73" driver.  "rt2500" driver is only for PCI/PCMCIA devices.
