I bought an AZTECH WL562USB wireless adapter and am stuck trying to install the driver.



The driver file I downloaded is a BZ2, called

How can I install the driver from this bz2 file?

          I found this workaround that worked for me:



          This is how I got my RT5370 usb wifi adapter installed and working on CB2.





          1. download driver archive



            2011_0719_RT3070_RT3370_RT5370_RT5372_Linux_STA_V2 .5.0.3_DPO.bz2 (RT8070/RT3070/RT3370/RT5370/RT5372 USB 03/28/2012 2.5.0.3




          2. unpack the archive and navigate into the top level directory just extracted:



            tar jxvf  2011_0719_RT3070_RT3370_RT5370_RT5372_Linux_STA_V2.5.0.3_DPO.bz2
            cd 2011_0719_RT3070_RT3370_RT5370_RT5372_Linux_STA_V2.5.0.3_DPO



          3. modify the following code in os/linux/config.mk as below:



            HAS_WPA_SUPPLICANT=y
            HAS_NATIVE_WPA_SUPPLICANT_SUPPORT=y
            WFLAGS += -DCONFIG_STA_SUPPORT



          4. to quieten down the debugging modify sta/sta-cfg.c:



            remove "#ifdef DBG" on line 4095
            remove "endif /* DBG */" on line 4693



          5. to change the name from ra0 to wlan0 modify include/rtmp_def.h and change ra to wlan in the following lines:



            #define INF_MAIN_DEV_NAME        "ra"
            #define INF_MBSSID_DEV_NAME "ra"



          6. make and install the modified driver



            make
            sudo make install
            sudo modprobe rt5370sta


          7. reboot and check with lsusb lsmod and ifconfig to make sure all is working as required in the operating system.



          The CB2 setup program didn't work for me but the xbmc network manager addon worked perfectly so I downloaded and use that rather than doing it all via the operating system.



          I hope this helps someone else trying to get an RT5370 wifi adapter up and running.

          How to download, build and install the RT3070 driver




          • Your adapter has a Ralink RT3070 chipset. You can download the official Linux drivers from this site.



          • We'll suppose the driver has been downloaded to your Downloads folder and is called 2011_0719_RT3070_RT3370_RT5370_RT5372_Linux_STA_V2.5.0.3_DPO.bz2. Open a terminal with Ctrl-Alt-T, and type or paste the following:




            sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r) build-essential
            cd Downloads
            tar -xjf 2011_0719_RT3070_RT3370_RT5370_RT5372_Linux_STA_V2.5.0.3_DPO
            cd 2011_0719_RT3070_RT3370_RT5370_RT5372_Linux_STA_V2.5.0.3_DPO
            sudo make && sudo make install
            make clean
            cd ..
            rm -rf 2011_0719_RT3070_RT3370_RT5370_RT5372_Linux_STA_V2.5.0.3_DPO


          • Reboot, and hopefully your wireless connection will appear!
