The driver included in Karmic (after all updates) is 1.8.0.1 which is
very old and very buggy. It won't connect in Wireless N mode in 5Ghz for
more than an hour, even with no encryption at all. WPA2 works randomly,
maybe once every 10 reboots. The driver also foolds the system log with
status information (not even errors).

I've tried downloading 2.2.0.0 from the ralink site, but it won't
compile in 2.6.31. This is a known issue unfortunately.

Some patches have surfaced for other ralink drivers affected by this
same problem but I can find none that would work in my case.

Any workaround till ubuntu catches up with ralink, would be helpful
