Are you using wpa_supplicant?

I discover that rt73 don't support wpa_supplicat, quoting by README:
    wpa_supplicant is a userland WPA/WPA2/802.1X layer. This driver is
    not compatible with it. As most wpa_supplicant features are
    embedded into our driver, you should not need it though.


Always on README suggest to use:

       a) WEP (802.11b)
          Choose the authentication mode (open/restricted):
             # iwconfig wlan0 key open
          Or:
             # iwconfig wlan0 key restricted
          Set the encryption key:
             # iwconfig wlan0 key <KEY>

       b) WPA (802.11g)
          Set the authentication mode:
             # iwpriv wlan0 set AuthMode=WPAPSK
          Set the encryption key:
             # iwpriv wlan0 set WPAPSK=<KEY>
          Set the encryption type:
             # iwpriv wlan0 set EncrypType=TKIP

       c) WPA2 (802.11i)
          Set the authentication mode:
             # iwpriv wlan0 set AuthMode=WPA2PSK
          Set the encryption key:
             # iwpriv wlan0 set WPAPSK=<KEY>
          Set the encryption type:
             # iwpriv wlan0 set EncrypType=AES

A patch for wap supplicat is also given, if need I will try to patch
wpa_supplicant soon as possible.

Inside TODO list :) this shouldn't be impossible
