I have the following device.

        $ lsusb -s 004
        Bus 002 Device 004: ID 148f:2870 Ralink Technology, Corp. RT2870 Wireless Adapter

How do I check if the bit is set? Sometimes the device disconnects when
being 10 meters away from the access point. The connection is also
slower than with an ath5k device right next to it.
