I have two USB wireless card with Ralink RT3070 chip, this is the lsusb Bus 001 Device 013: ID 148f:3070 Ralink Technology, Corp. RT2870/RT3070 Wireless Adapter I connect to a router which is 200mt away so i always connect with low signal. With kernels up to 3.3.x I hadn't any problem with the rt2800usb driver. Since kernel 3.4.x I can't connect, connection just timeout while authenticating. Using Ralink driver I can connect even tho it's a little unstable and bugged. Since kernel 3.5 I'm experiencing some problems connecting with the ralink driver too, always with the timeout problem. I'm experiencing the same problem with both my Asus EEEPC 1000H and my Dell Latitude e5420 using Fedora 17 and Archlinux, I tried wicd and networkmanager to manage the connection.
