Thanks assaf,
seems from your tests that for your system the new firmware works about as well as the old:
rt2800usb
7392:7711 Edimax Technology Co., Ltd EW-7711UTn nLite Wireless Adapter [Ralink RT2870]
DISTRIB_CODENAME=natty
2.6.38-8-generic i686
My command did not quite work as expected. Should have been:
grep CODENAME /etc/lsb-release; uname -rm; lspci -vvnn | grep Network; lspci -k | grep Network --after-context 3 | grep use; md5sum /lib/firmware/rt2860.bin; md5sum /lib/firmware/rt2870.bin
Otherwise grep will return FALSE for if it finds nothing and the rest does not get executed. So the md5sums are not printed. No matter.
