I discovered that my WUSB11 V2.6 doesn't like the newer 1.101.0-84
firmware that is used by the at76c503-rfmd driver, but works fine using
the older 0.90.2-140 firmware.

Try applying the patch below (basically, change the #include line to
include the older firmware), recompile and load the newly compiled
at76c503-rfmd.o module and see if your luck improves.
