this doesn't helps with the ping times here and it also doesn't prevent the 
network traffic to stall from time to time (e.g. using apt-get install <some 
package>). 

Additionaly I found the following in the log:

[ 2701.455472] phy0 -> rt2x00usb_watchdog_tx_dma: Warning - TX queue 0 DMA timed 
out, invoke forced forced reset

This is with latest driver (rt2x00 master from today) backported to 2.6.37. The 
machine is arm tegra and the chip is a rt3070. Output of ping with "power off":

You can see a clear pattern within the ping times.

Hope this helps,
