If 3.8.6 does not fix it, then try the kernel from the wireless-testing git 
tree. There were a number of other fixes in the code that will go into kernel 
3.10, and my rtl8192cu devices (3 different models) work fine here with that 
kernel. Unfortunately, those changes are not yet available in a compat-drivers 
release.

Otherwise, you need to produce more definitive logging of what is failing.
