Hi I have now tested the ISO image, by doing a fresh install on my computer. At first the device appears to work fine. It connects, with WPA encryption, and it stays connected. This is an improvement from lucid.
However, there is a problem with speed. The connection is slow. I have 100% signal strength and network information says I'm connected at 54Mbps, but browsing is slow. I have double checked my connection, both with cable and by plugging the wifi dongle into my other computer (running lucid with my self-compiled driver). It must be the driver that's the problem. When running lsmod | grep "rt2", I get this asbjo...@ubuntucat:~$ sudo lsmod | grep "rt2"rt2800usb 9955 0 rt2800lib 31970 1 rt2800usb rt2x00usb 11316 2 rt2800usb,rt2800lib rt2x00lib 31575 2 rt2800lib,rt2x00usb led_class 3393 1 rt2x00lib mac80211 266657 2 rt2x00usb,rt2x00lib cfg80211 170293 2 rt2x00lib,mac80211 crc_ccitt 1699 1 rt2800usb The output shows that the device use the rt2800usb driver, instead of the rt2870sta. When I blacklist this driver, the device doesn't work at all. As far as I can understand, there's still something wrong in the device list(s). I have run the apport-collect command from your e-mail below. When I install the latest upstream kernel and boot with that, i get an error message and the computer boots to a command prompt instead of gnome. I get no further.
