Hi Joshua,
thanks to your testing (your comment #6 and confirmation in your comment #10) we know that this bug is fixed by the version of firmware file rt2870.bin which is included in package linux-firmware 1.53. That version 1.53 of linux-firmware had already been published for oneiric on 2011-05-26[1]. So for oneiric nothing more needed to be done.

As can be seen from the line beginning with "Natty" just below "linux-firmware" at the top of this bug and comment #13 Seth is now working on getting this fix into Natty.

From the top of twin bug 762987 (same fix, slightly different hardware) and comment 21 it can be seen that Seth has also started the task of bringing the fix to maverick, lucid and even hardy.
