Plug in the usb Nic and run the lsusb command to view the device:
Bus 004 Drvice 003: ID 148f: 2573 Ralink Technology, Corp
 
The rtora7 driver with rt73 is ready for loading with the following command:
Modprobe rt73usb
 
However, after the driver is loaded, the NIC still cannot be used. the iwconfig command does not display the Wireless NIC, and the dmesg command displays an error message:
Error-connt read firmware
Unable to read firmware. The reason is unknown.
 
Instead, you can only download a new driver, compile and install it, and the driver name is:
Rt73-k2wrlz-3.0.3-3
:
Http://homepages.tu-darmstadt.de /~ P_larbig/wlan/rt73-k2wrlz-3.0.3.tar.bz2
 
Decompress the package and follow the README file description to compile and install the package:
Tar-xvf rt73-k2wrlz-3.0.3-3.tar.bz2
Cd rt73-k2wrlz-3.0.3-3/Module
Make
Make install
Modprobe rt73 ifname = wlan0
The installation is successful.
 
You can use iwconfig to view information about wlan0,


 
Add the ifcfg-wlan0 file under the/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts directory to add the following:
DEVICE = wlan0
ONBOOT = yes
ROOTPROTO = dhcp
 
Save and exit. run the ifup wlan0 command to start the NIC.
 
Use iwlist wlan0 scan to view available wireless routers.
Use the iwconfig wlan0 ap [mac] command to connect to the MAC address of an available wireless router.
 
After work is done, happy to go home.
