Re: Belkin F5D7050

Hi,

in the dump you have posted, we can see a kernel oops which seems to be 
related to DriverLoader.

Please note that you are attempting to use a wireless device based on 
the RT73 chipset which is not officially supported by DriverLoader and 
this is the likely source of the problem.

It is quite possible that we will add official support for the RT73 
chipset in a future version of DriverLoader. We will contact you back 
when official support for the RT73 chipset will be added.

Regards,
