Hi Michael:

Thank you for your reply.

Can you share the USB WLAN device model details ?

It's an D-Link DWL-G122. But you have to be careful, because it can be that depending on the
revision of the device it's a different chipset! I can't tell you right now what revision has my device
but I read here [1] (in German) that "HW Ver C1 is a Ralink RT73" which seems to be not supported by the ural(4) driver.
So according to the manpage you should buy revision b1.
