I tried to find it but it is all named like 'rt3070-kmod.~~~.src.fc14' or 'rt3070-kmod-debuginfo.~~~.fc14'.
The first one is something that I've tried before(Unpack and there's the src), but I haven't tried the latter one. Thanks.

I believe that the needed packages to support the RT3070 are in the
rpmfusion-free repository.
I had done this back in F11 to get the RT2860 working....but it was a
long time ago. It did work fine I just decided not to use the wireless
card on my desktop system.
I am sure someone else will know the details. But, generally the step
should be....
1. Enable the rpmfusion-free repo http://rpmfusion.org/Configuration
2. Install kmod-rt3070 which will pull in the dependencies for the
kernel you're running.
