1 Thanks Stuart,

3 It seems that it is a ver 1000 device and I have managed to get it (partly)
4 working with the rt2x00 driver using the rt2500usb compile flag. This is
5 what the USB port shows:

73 The problem is that this driver does not seem to provide the connection speed
74 to the ap, and it does not like shutting down and restarting the device (it
75 crashes and I get a kernel oops). I'll be sending a report to the driver
76 developer when I get a minute. Meanwhile, I'd appreciate if you could tell
77 me which chip this USB WiFi adaptor has.

79 Kind regards,
