And indeed, it doesn't seem to be in the sources anymore. Seems I've to update my post. Ralink changed their linux support page location as well... You could try it without changing the rt2860.h step. I'm no longer using my wireless usb stick, since online gaming + wireless usb is a no-no, at least in my case. @James

I just like to make a notice: In the latest version on the ralink page F5D8053 is supported out-of-the-box. So no more fiddling around with the source :-) Thanks for the guide!

I got one "unknown symbol" message when I installed rt2870 and several on netr28u. I downloaded and installed a new ndiswrapper. When I tried installing all available updates, it would not boot. For me, it says:

This was just what I needed to get my D-Link Wireless N USB (DWA-130 B1) dongle working. The key piece of information that I didn't see in any other post on this topic elsewhere was the need to edit the rt2870.h file. It didn't have my device ID, but after adding it and recompiling I was up and running. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
