I have the same problem with a-link usb wifi. I just updated to Ubuntu from 9.04 to 9.10 and my signal level dropped from 80-95% to 20-30%. Also iwconfig is telling that link only 1Mb. If I force link back to 54Mb with iwconfig, then it works only couple of minutes and then connection is lost, so using iwconfig to boost up bit rate isn't solution.
I now have kernel 2.6.31-19-generic #56-Ubuntu running and that is having this bug. I also tried booting on older kernel (2.6.28-18.59 that was already installed to my computer) and then signal level was back to 80-95% and iwconfig showed bitrate 54Mb. So it seems that something between those kernel releases has broken ZyDAS ZD1211 chipset drivers.
