If you look in the README file in the Module directory for Ralink's
drivers they give instructions on how to configure it using the
rt61sta.dat file.  You'll be particularly interested in the AuthMode and
EncrypType entries, though you need to fill out the other relevant
sections (WPA key, SSID, etc).

As for the link not ready error, I noticed something strange.  While the
compat-wireless drivers were working fine, I started getting the same
error again after a power outage made me reboot my PC.  If I blacklist
the driver(s) (rt61 if you have it installed and rt61pci), reboot so the
driver isn't loaded, comment out the rt61pci entry in the blacklist and
insert the driver I connect without a problem.  I guess the reason why
it worked fine the first time I tried it was because I already had the
rt61pci driver blacklisted so I could use the rt61 legacy driver, and
since I uninstalled the legacy driver my system was "clean".  I'm still
not sure why the driver doesn't work if it loads at boot time, though...

As for the debug configs, it doesn't create any extra error messages.
If you have a debugfs mounted somewhere (I added an fstab entry to mount
it at /sys/kernel/debug) there is extra debug information the driver
makes available, the most notable of which are the card's registers.
IvD has an updated script that dumps the registers on the rt2x00 forums
