The RT2500 series cards do not support Wireless Extensions which is how
Network Manager communicates with the card.   Once they have implemented
WEXT support the card will be seen and will use WPA properly.   Since
this bug doesn't apply to NM but to the RT2500 Driver I would think that
this bug should be assigned to the Linux kernel ( I /THINK/ the RT2500
driver is in the kernel now), set to wishlist and linked to a bug
upstream with the driver maintainers.

I vaguely recall that they were working towards WEXT support but I am
not sure on the status.

No option for WPA in Network Manager even though RALink driver supports it.
