Hello,
rt2500usb is broken since kernel 2.6.29. It has been discussed before but 
never solved:
http://rt2x00.serialmonkey.com/phpBB/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=4834
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=484888

I have Asus WL-167G and it really does not work. Scanning works, association 
too but no packets can be sent (looks like receive works because tcpdump 
shows packets from other machines). DHCP fails (No DHCPOFFERS received).

The problem is caused by this patch:

rt2x00: Implement HW encryption (rt2500usb)
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=dddfb478b2...

Removing it from 2.6.29 restores the functionality.
