Hi there!
Maybe it's a solution for you - like me - to install the backported wireless modules ("linux-backports-modules-wireless-lucid-generic") and blacklist the "rt2860sta" module (sudo echo "blacklist rt2860sta" >> /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf). After that my wifi is very stable by using the modules rt2800lib, rt2800pci, rt2800lib and rt2x00pci.
I have a ASUS Eee PC 1000 with a "RaLink RT2860" wifi chip and use Ubuntu Maverick with kernel 2.6.35-28-generic.

Cheers!
