I am trying to use a Dlink DWA-110 wireless G usb modem (ID 07d1:3c07) on Hardy, kernel 2.6.2-.24.53 generic

The modem is not recognised when plugged in (it uses rt73usb)
Even after manual 'modprobe rt73usb', the wlan device is not created. (NOTE: this command loads the modules whether the modem is plugged in or not).

After loading linux-backports-modules-hardy-generic, the modules load when the modem is plugged in and wireless works as expected, but when the modem is unplugged, the kernel panics.

The kernel panic can be triggered with the command "modprobe -r rt73usb"
