Description Dylan Harkleroad 2009-06-05 09:40:30 UTC 
Certain drivers are not enabled by the rt2870. One being the Linksys WUSB100 card.

Basically it's missing the device id from rt2870.h

Adding the following to rt2870.h fixes the problem.

{USB_DEVICE(0x1737,0x0070)}, /* Linksys */

Another one that is apparently missing is:

{USB_DEVICE(0x2019,0xED14)}, /* Planex Communications, Inc. */

Another one that's missing is 

Bus 002 Device 003: ID 050d:815c Belkin Components

{USB_DEVICE(0x050D,0x815C)}, /* Belkin */

Which corresponds to a Belkin F5D8053 N Wireless USB Adapter.

I suggest that you prepare a patch and send it to linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org and gregkh@suse.de...

In rt2870.h, there are 2 lists of USB devices. One is within 

#ifndef RT30xx
#endif

and the other in 

#ifdef RT30xx
#endif

Since I'm not sure whether to add the devices to both lists or only the first, I'm posting a patch for both variations.

Patch 1, add devices only to first list:
