For me, downloading and mannualy compiling the rt2860sta driver from the
Ralink website solved the problem.

To do this, download and unpack the driver from http://www.ralinktech.com/support.php?s=2
(in my case , I've selected RT2860PCI/mPCI/CB/PCIe(RT2760/RT2790/RT2860/RT2890)

Edit the <b>os/linux/config.mk</b> file and change the following
settings to 'y':

<pre>
# Support Wpa_Supplicant
HAS_WPA_SUPPLICANT=y

# Support Native WpaSupplicant for Network Maganger
HAS_NATIVE_WPA_SUPPLICANT_SUPPORT=y
</pre>

Then compile it:
<pre>make</pre>

And install it:
<pre>sudo make install</pre>

Please note that these steps have to be performed every time when the
kernel is upgraded.
