In Ubuntu 14.04 and kernel 3.13.0-46-generic in a HP Paviliong g6 with a Ralink RT5390.  I have the problem that the wireless sometimes connects for several minutes and then it just disconnects. By restarting the card or the computer (several times) the connection is reestablished, sometimes. 
I have tried different drivers and updates for this card but the problems persists since I installed Ubuntu 5 months ago.

  HP Pavilion laptop with Ralink RT5390 wireless interface

  1. Can detect home wi-fi signal but can't connect. Keeps asking for
  password then "disconnects" over and over again.

  2. All other computers, tablets, and smartphones at home can connect
  to the wi-fi without any trouble at all.

  3. HP Pavilion laptop can connect to the internet if tethered to my
  smartphone (used as a portable wi-fi hotspot).
