Hi Kernel Wireless developers, I write here since I have an issue with this module.

We bought 2 of them since they are both 2.4 and 5Ghz capable, and they seem to be powerful enough for our pourposes
http://www.edimax.com/au/produce_detail.php?pd_id=399&pl1_id=1&pl2_id=44

Anyway there is a problem, that the linux kernel seems to be not supporting them

I tried following this guide
http://wikidevi.com/wiki/Edimax_EW-7733UnD
rt3573sta, possibly rt5572sta, and future support in rt2800usb "uhosg's patchset adding support, may be in by k3.12"
but at this moment it is showing an interface with one of them (I cannot connect to anything, the interface shown seems to be incorrect), with another I get a kernel anic and with the third one doesn't work at all.

lsusb |grep Edimax

Bus 002 Device 002: ID 7392:7733 Edimax Technology Co., Ltd 

Are you guys working on it? How can I make it work? I'm open to patches, suggestions or whatever can help me in using them

thanks

That device was added to the kernel version of rt2800usb in July of 2013, and it 
is in version 3.12-rc6. You can either generate that kernel for your system, or 
you could get the latest backports source and build it.

I am not an expert on the rt2x00 drivers, and I have no idea if it works.

I have that exect device and it works ok here, but I'm using 
wireless-testing tree. So perhaps you should try install that
tree or use backports .

Wonderful! I don't really understand what do you mean with backports, are you referring to "linux kernel backports" right?

So I can choose the backport source or to checkout and build the wireless-testing tree.

Just as information, how long will it take to have it into the stable mainline?

How does the merge works?
(just because I don't want to build a custom kernel if not really needed I use the rc kernels packaged by ubuntu team
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ )


many thanks

Yes.

Current wireless-testing content will be available on 3.13 ,
though I think that device should also work on 3.12 .

Ok I built a custom kernel but I still have some issues
Ubuntu 13.10 x64
git clone http://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linville/wireless-testing.git
cd wireless-testing
copied my config from this kernel http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.12-rc7-saucy/

make oldconfig
(a tail of my .config file after the make)
CONFIG_RT2800PCI=m
CONFIG_RT2800PCI_RT33XX=y
CONFIG_RT2800PCI_RT35XX=y
CONFIG_RT2800PCI_RT53XX=y

CONFIG_RT2800USB_RT35XX=y
# CONFIG_RT2800USB_RT3573 is not set
CONFIG_RT2800USB_RT53XX=y
CONFIG_RT2800USB_RT55XX=y
CONFIG_RT2800USB_UNKNOWN=y
CONFIG_RT2800_LIB=m
CONFIG_RT2800_LIB_MMIO=m
CONFIG_RT2X00_LIB_MMIO=m
CONFIG_RT2X00_LIB_PCI=m
CONFIG_RT2X00_LIB_USB=m
CONFIG_RT2X00_LIB=m
CONFIG_RT2X00_LIB_FIRMWARE=y
CONFIG_RT2X00_LIB_CRYPTO=y
CONFIG_RT2X00_LIB_LEDS=y
# CONFIG_RT2X00_LIB_DEBUGFS is not set
# CONFIG_RT2X00_DEBUG is not set

(apt-get build-dep linux)
make
make all
sudo make modules_install
sudo make install

I was surprised that everything was automatically copied in /boot and grub automatically found the new kernel without manual mkinitrd anymore (so long time from my last kernel build)

Reboot

Lack of firmware ? Also check if device support is really compiled in
the module - "modinfo rt2800usb | grep 7733" should show device id.

Aren't you trying to get a RT3573 card to work? You should activate
CONFIG_RT2800USB_RT3573.

I'm rebuilding the kernel with this module, but I don't think this is my chip
http://www.edimax.com/au/produce_detail.php?pd_id=399&pl1_id=1&pl2_id=44

is it?

Thanks

It should be, as it is the only Ralink chipset that supports 3x3
operation (i.e. 450 Mbps).
Also, the USB id of the device is listed in the driver under that
configuration option, so I'm pretty sure you
have to enable that configuration option ;-)

Yep indeed, after enabling it everything was fine :)

So maybe ubuntu kernel developers disable the module by default? In this case I'll ask them to enable it...

Last question, is it normal than disabling the wifi switch (hardware) on my laptop also the usb key gets disabled?


I think I also had to modprobe rt2800usb for enabling it... don't know
