Title:
  USB WiFi adapter with rt2870 chipset won't connect

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Hardware:  Rosewell RNX-N1 Wireless N (USB WiFi adapter using a rt2870 chipset).
  Problem:  Device is detected but multiple drivers are being loaded, evidently causing a conflict that makes connecting impossible.
  Version of Ubuntu:  10.04 Beta 1

  More information and a manual fix concerning this problem can be found
  here:

  I was able to get this device working correctly by blacklisting the
  following devices:

  blacklist rt2x00usb
  blacklist rt2x00lib
  blacklist rt2800usb

  The reason I am reporting this bug is that this is not consumer friendly behavior.  Not many regular computer users will be able to find the fix, let alone accomplish the fix.
