Yes this allows a stable connection even using wpa. Performance still seems
less than W8 though

Title:
  Ralink RT3290 not working in Saucy

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  RT3290 wifi will not connect in 13.10 with wpa on. By removing
  security a connection is achieved but it is poor signal and drops out
  after 5-10 minutes. Trying in 13.04 results in a connection which
  stays up even with wpa so this is a regression. Even in 13.04
  performace is very poor (signal strength, speed) compared to W8.

  Kernal is using the rt2800pci module which appears poorly equiped to
  handle this chip.
