1. Introduction
The Edimax EW7318Ug uses a ralink rt73 chipset. The driver is available from manufacturer site or via http://rt2x00.serialmonkey.com. Trying to use serialmonkey driver included in ubuntu 7.04 kernel in some cases may freeze the system. So i suggest to use the latest driver from ralink site. The problem is that in ubuntu if there is the driver in /lib/modules, when you attach the usb device, the system tryes to use the serialmonkey driver present in the directories /lib/modules/{your kernel version}/kernel/ubuntu/wireless/rt2*. To disable this driver i deleted this directory and updated the driver list, with depmod -a.
2. Installation
2.1. Disable kernel driver
If the driver is compiled ad module, you must delete the .ko modules and run depmod -a. If it is compiled into the kernel you must use install rt2x00 /bin/true directive in one of the modprobe config files.
2.2. Download the latest driver
2.3. Follow instruction on readme
2.4. Configure rt73sta.dat
2.5. Configure interface rausb0 in /etc/network/interfaces
Configure the interface rausb0 (or rausb#) as a normal ethernet device (the wireless parameter are in /etc/wireless/.../rt73sta.dat), for example: ddddd
2.6. Restart the driver and the network
/etc/init.d/networking stop rmmod rt73 modprobe rt73 /etc/init.d/networking start
