I suggest check rfkill as well.

Between 3.16 and 3.18 we have only those rt2x00 changes:

cfd9167 rt2x00: do not align payload on modern H/W
664d6a7 wireless: rt2x00: add new rt2800usb device
01f7fee rt2800: correct BBP1_TX_POWER_CTRL mask
ac0372a rt2x00: support Ralink 5362.
9baa3c3 PCI: Remove DEFINE_PCI_DEVICE_TABLE macro use
6a06e55 wireless: rt2x00: add new rt2800usb devices
d4150246 drivers/net/wireless/rt2x00/rt2x00dev.c: remove null test before kfree
df6e633 rt2x00: Use dma_zalloc_coherent
19dcb76 rt2x00: do not initialize BCN_OFFSET registers
ddb4055 rt2x00: change order when stop beaconing
88ff2f4 rt2x00: change default MAC_BSSID_DW1_BSS_BCN_NUM
ba08910 rt2x00: change beaconing setup on RT2800
283dafa rt2x00: change beaconing locking
57eaeb6 net: wireless: rt2x00: rt2x00mac.c: Cleaning up uninitialized variables

They could be reverted, even on top of 3.19-rc7, instead of doing
full bisection. But this could be also mac80211 issue, then bisection
will be necessary to figure out this bug.
