Support for adapters using the RaLink rt72 chipset has been added to Guardian Angel Linux. wpa_supplicant has been updated to support for this adapter as well as go to the latest wpa_supplicant-0.5.9 version.
wpa_setup has been updated so it can use the new ralink directive. For example:
wpa_setup -g -k -i wlan0 -e wpa -d ralink -s access_point
Notes:
- the interface most likely will identify itself as wlan# (e.g. wlan0, wlan1, etc.)
- change the access_point value to whatever is appropriate for your WLAN
