Unfortunately, the rt2x00 module seems pretty much unmaintained and is not reported to support the Linux Wireless Extensions yet. I found some discussion about this back in July:

Sadly, nothing seems to have happened with it since.

If at least Network Manager worked with WEP and without any security that would at least be something.
