Wireless USB Network Adapter Bus 001 Device 004: ID 148f:3070 Ralink Technology, Corp. does not work in Ubuntu 10.04.4 LTS
I run Ubuntu 10.04.
I have a Linksys wifi adapter that runs fine and required minimal set up to get running.
I plugged it in, entered the password and it worked.
I have bought a faster Ralink wifi adapter and so far have had no success with it.
This came with a cd but I don't understand how to install the driver or whether I need to.
Can someone point me in the right direction.

In a terminal, please run the following and paste the results back here:
lspci -vnn -s $(lspci | fgrep -i network | cut -d" " -f1)
This will give us the hardware you are running.
Generally, the older ralink chips have a driver supplied in the staging area,
/lib/modules/
which works (but works better with wicd instead of network-manager because wicd
reconnects faster after dropouts). A config file may be missing -- /etc/Wireless/
Since Ubuntu 11.04, the rt2900pci driver handles the older ralink chips, and the vendor driver is not needed except for newer chips. Check the blacklisted drivers in /etc/modules.d/* and make sure you only have either the ralink driver or the rt2800pci driver, not both.

Hi,
Please first connect your wired network adapter to the wireless router using an ethernet cable (also known as a LAN cable).
In order to gather essential troubleshooting information about your wireless card, please follow this procedure:
Step 1:
If you are using the Gnome interface, open the Terminal console via "Applications-
If you are using the Unity interface, the easiest way to open the Terminal is to use the 'search' function on the dash. Or you can click on the 'More Apps' button, click on the 'See more results' by the installed section, and find it in that list of applications. A third way, available after you click on the 'More Apps' button, is to go to the search bar, and see that the far right end of it says 'All Applications'. You then click on that, and you'll see the full list. Then you can go to Accessories > Terminal after that.
So the methods in Unity are:
Dash > Search for Terminal
Dash > More Apps > 'See More Results' > Terminal
Dash > More Apps > Accessories > Terminal
Step 2: Please copy-paste the following command from https:/
Tip: If you have a wheel mouse or 3 button mouse you do not need to type commands into the Terminal. Highlight the command written on the page. Move your cursor anywhere in the Terminal and press the wheel or middle button. Automatic Copy and paste! No spelling mistakes! No Typos! No other errors!
sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install hwinfo grep rfkill; sudo lshw -C network; rfkill list; sudo iwlist scanning; cat /etc/network/
Step 3: Please post results (copy/paste terminal output) on this thread. The troubleshooters here need to see the full Terminal output from running the above command.
Step 4: Please also specify the exact model and make of your newer wireless adapter (if known) on this thread.
Regards,
Mark

Thanks Ubfan, that solved my question.

Apologies Ubfan, this did not solve my problem.
Here is the output from the command you suggested.
There is clearly a problem with command.
richard@
lspci: option requires an argument -- 's'
Usage: lspci [<switches>]
Basic display modes:
-mm Produce machine-readable output (single -m for an obsolete format)
-t Show bus tree
Display options:
-v Be verbose (-vv for very verbose)
-k Show kernel drivers handling each device
-x Show hex-dump of the standard part of the config space
-xxx Show hex-dump of the whole config space (dangerous; root only)
-xxxx Show hex-dump of the 4096-byte extended config space (root only)
-b Bus-centric view (addresses and IRQ's as seen by the bus)
-D Always show domain numbers
Resolving of device ID's to names:
-n Show numeric ID's
-nn Show both textual and numeric ID's (names & numbers)
-q Query the PCI ID database for unknown ID's via DNS
-qq As above, but re-query locally cached entries
-Q Query the PCI ID database for all ID's via DNS
Selection of devices:
-s [[[[<domain>
-d [<vendor>
Other options:
-i <file> Use specified ID database instead of /usr/share/
-p <file> Look up kernel modules in a given file instead of default modules.pcimap
-M Enable `bus mapping' mode (dangerous; root only)
PCI access options:
-A <method> Use the specified PCI access method (see `-A help' for a list)
-O <par>=<val> Set PCI access parameter (see `-O help' for a list)
-G Enable PCI access debugging
-H <mode> Use direct hardware access (<mode> = 1 or 2)
-F <file> Read PCI configuration dump from a given file

Nothing wrong with the command, even a cut and paste from your email worked on my system. Try Mark's script, that'll give all the info we need. Possible issues with the command are 1) no cut command!!! unlikely, that is in coreutils and is always present, 2) running a non-bash shell (or older bash?), ...

First you need to blacklist the rt2800usb driver using this Terminal command:
echo blacklist rt2800usb | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.
This blacklisting of the rt2800usb driver is recommended here:

Then reboot and retest wireless. If it is not working yet, then try installing the newest rt3070 drivers using this link:
https:/
Then reboot and retest wireless. If that does not help, then try installing the newest version of the package "linux-firmware" as suggested here by Martin Pitt:

Accepted linux-firmware into lucid-proposed, the package will build now and be available in a few hours. Please test and give feedback here. See https:/
If all those steps still do not help, then change wireless encryption from WPA (or WPA2) to WEP encryption, as suggested here
https:/
Then retest wireless.

Hi,
I have blacklisted the driver and that hasn't worked.
I am trying to install the new driver with some difficulty.
Note, I can see my wireless modem on network connections,
and it says it is connected, however Firefox can't talk to it.
Regards, Richard.
