After modprobe rt2780sta, did you try

ifconfig ra0 up
pkill NetworkManager

until I did this iwconfig showed nothing for ra0; it's needed on every boot. I also tried ditching the hated NetworkManager and using an ra0 stanza with wireless-* in /etc/network/interfaces instead, but that didn't quite work either. The interface associated to the AP (according to iwconfig), but no pings.
