I have an RT5370 adapter from Panda Wireless and use it on my Ubuntu

It is working fine on my laptop.

From my laptop:
rt2x00lib_request_firmware: Info - Firmware detected - version: 0.29

I didn't see the warnings reported in the Bug 114151.

Just curious how to test version 0.36 on my laptop.\\

Go to https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=114151 and copy the attachment to your ~/Downloads directory. Then do the following:

sudo cp /lib/firmware/rt2870.bin /lib/firmware/rt2870.bin_old
sudo cp ~/Downloads/rt2870.bin /lib/firmware/.
sudo modprobe -rv rt2x00usb
sudo modprobe -v rt2x00usb

If your testing shows a regression in performance, then you can recover by copying rt2870.bin_old to rt2870.bin in /lib/firmware.
