Well, i got a working wired connection and it works perfectly.

Thank u for helping out. But wireless still not working..It is soft blocked.

In your previous attempts to install the compiled driver, you blacklisted the rt2800pci and rt2x00pci drivers, which, according to the comment on the bug report page I linked to, should be now able to handle your card.

Accordingly, before you try anything else, I'd suggest you 'Un-Blacklist' those drivers and retry. Open the blacklist file with root access -

Code:

gksu gedit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf

then delete the last two lines that say "blacklist rt2800pci" and "blacklist rt2x00pci". Proofread, save and close the file. Then do-

Code:

sudo modprobe -v rt2800pci

..and see if the wireless becomes active.

If not, please post outputs of :

Code:

modinfo rt2800pci
locate rt3290.bin
dmesg | grep -iE 'firm|rt2'
lsmod

Bingo.. i got an option for enable wireless and connected it ONCE--Black listed those items.
But it not getting connected AUTOMATICALLY when i restarted. I tried manually by selecting...,restarted system and modem, but still not..All available connections are dispalyed there..
Any idea..????????????
thank u varun and praseodym..
