BoboKrull : I think this guide is quite too old. I built the RT3572 module like this:
1) download the RT3572 module source from RalinkTech website (filename: 2009_1222_RT3572_LinuxSTA_V2.3.0.0.tar.bz2)
2) execute the command "bunzip2 2009_1222_RT3572_LinuxSTA_V2.3.0.0.tar.bz2"
3) execute the command "tar -xvf 2009_1222_RT3572_LinuxSTA_V2.3.0.0.tar"
4) add the device and vendor id "{USB_DEVICE(0x1737,0x0079)}" between the "#ifdef RT35xx" and "#endif // RT35xx //" in the file "common/rtusb_dev_id.c"
5) modify the "os/linux/config.mk" like I described in my previous message
6) execute the command "sudo make"
7) execute the command "sudo make install"
8) execute the command "sudo modprobe rt3572sta" => a blue light will turn on and the network interface "ra0" will create (commands "ifconfig" and "iwconfig")

Notice: sometimes, my Ubuntu doesn't detect correctly my stick so I have to unplug and re-plug.
