I'm also using ral in hostap mode, and it works perfectly. Contents of
hostname.ral0:
inet 192.168.2.1 255.255.255.0 NONE media autoselect mediaopt hostap nwid
stupendous mode 11g
(I don't use WEP.)
The device itself:
ral0 at pci0 dev 11 function 0 "Ralink RT2561S" rev 0x00: irq 11, address
00:11:6b:3d:7f:6a
ral0: MAC/BBP RT2561C, RF RT2527
Try attaching (if you haven't already) a high quality external antenna.
This made a world of difference in my case.
