rt73 is a Ralink firmware, it has nothing to do with the OP's Prism WLAN.
It comes from the rt73usb-firmware package.
Let me state the facts and you can tell me why they don't mean the obvious...
when I plug in the WUSH54G device, the disk blinks, the device blinks, and a
wireless connection is made. On looking at the files in /lib/firmware I see that
the most recently accessed file is rt73.bin. And that if I boot without plugging
in the WUSH54G device that firmware is not accessed.
I didn't pull that filename out of the sir, I looked to see what firmware was
accessed. Are you saying that the access when the device is used is just a
coincidence?
