Is there any hope of getting the rt2x00pci drivers to work properly on
Ubuntu x64? This is what I get on 13.04 with kernel 3.8.0-33-generic

With Ralink driver and patch by bmlandis2010:

 Ralink STA  ESSID:"DLink"  Nickname:"RT3290STA"
          Mode:Managed  Frequency=2.412 GHz  Access Point: XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX
          Bit Rate=39 Mb/s   
          RTS thr:off   Fragment thr:off
          Link Quality=89/100  Signal level:-76 dBm  Noise level:-91 dBm
          Rx invalid nwid:0  Rx invalid crypt:0  Rx invalid frag:0
          Tx excessive retries:0  Invalid misc:0   Missed beacon:0

With rt2x00pci driver:

wlan0     IEEE 802.11bgn  ESSID:"DLink"  
          Mode:Managed  Frequency:2.412 GHz  Access Point: XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX
          Bit Rate=19.5 Mb/s   Tx-Power=20 dBm   
          Retry  long limit:7   RTS thr:off   Fragment thr:off
          Power Management:on
          Link Quality=30/70  Signal level=-80 dBm  
          Rx invalid nwid:0  Rx invalid crypt:0  Rx invalid frag:0
          Tx excessive retries:41  Invalid misc:1613   Missed beacon:0

Even though the signal levels are nearly equal (-76 dBm and -80 dBm)
link quality with rt2x00pci is too low (30/70) when compared to Ralink
driver (89/100). There are too many Tx excessive retries and Invalid
misc values.
