Installing the rc-buggy package from: http://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=firmware-ralink fixed the instability issues for me. (dropped connection, asking for password repeatedly).
However, It did not fix my issue with the wif enable/disable button. I cannot use the button to turn the wifi on or off. It's one of those function key buttons. -- It all works fine, if I use the 3.5 kernel from Ubuntu 12.10 though.
