rt2570/rt2500usb doesn't work with firmware, so no update is needed.

This is hardly am useful error description... You might want to use the rt2x00 package from backports to get the latest version of the driver.
Sorry about that.
I am using a Linksys wusb56gv4 and could not get the product to work properly in Ubuntu 8.04.
The USB wlan adapter would connect but would have long long periods of painfully slow downloads speeds.
Then a minute or less of fast speeds.
Then back to slow.
For 4-5 days I posted my sorrows of trying to get this to work on another thread on this forum but got no replies.
Using these instructions I got the card to work:

I bought this device as I heard it worked well with your drivers.
I am looking for something that works out of the box.
It is exciting to see yet another piece falling into place (your drivers) to bring free software to the masses. Driver make things go!
