Lets try

Nothing Happen Mate,

[praseodym]

Try

• Pressing the button/switch permanently during boot-up
• Pressing it repeatedly during boot-up
• Switch in "On" Position during boot-up

Same, it's persist. how about if i uninstall RT2800pci driver?is it doable?

[praseodym]

Yes, try this one instead

sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r) linux-headers-generic build-essential dkms
wget https://media-cdn.ubuntu-de.org/forum/attachments/06/23/5641297-RT3290_u16_v3.tar.gz
tar xvf 5641297-RT3290_u16_v3.tar.gz
cd RT3290_u16
tar xvf src.tar.gz
./compile.sh
sudo ./install.sh
sudo cp firmware/rt3290.bin /lib/firmware 
echo "blacklist rt2800pci" | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-rt2800pci.conf

Reboot

The mentioned code(from https://media-cdn.ubuntu-de.org/foru..._u16_v3.tar.gz ) inside the downloaded folder gives compilation errors at sta_ioctl.c during the function call access_ok
