Bug#594561: 594561 should be reopened

[Wenceslao González-Viñas <wens@fisica.unav.es>]

In fact, I think that it is a variant (rt3070) of rt2870. But anyway,  
I just connect the wifi stick to the computer (after updating kernel  
and rebooting). It starts to blink and detects the wifi signal, but  
not the needed channel (13).

I type:

iwlist wlan0 frequency

and in the answer there is only frequencies below 2.462 (so same  
channels as before).

BTW, it is a wifi USB stick, not a pci device ...

Thanks for everything.
