Ralink cards are supported in general, but I don't see that particular chipset on either the ral(4) list or the ural(4) list.
Check this list too:

The EDUP EP-6501 is a USB device so it won't be supported by ral driver which supports PCI devices.
The referenced page (http://www.wikidevi.com/wiki/EDUP_EP-6501) says the device uses Ralink RT2571W and RT2528. http://ralink.rapla.net/ says this combination is known as RT2501USB,
The FreeBSD hardware support list http://www.freebsd.org/releases/8.1R/hardware.html says the rum driver supports the RT2501 USB chipset,

Another wireless device that I am curious about is the Alfa AWUS036NH. Any word about getting that one working?

According to http://linux-wless.passys.nl/ the Alfa AWUS036NH has the same chipset as the Tenda W311U which is supported by the FreeBSD run driver which is in pfSense 2.0 BETA but not in pfSense 1.2.3. I have a Tenda W311U which I have working with recent pfSense 2.0 BETA snapshots.
Note that some suppliers of USB WiFi NICs change the chipset without changing the model number. The referenced web page is a best effort list based on what people have reported.
