There is something really messed up in the driver, as if it goes into power save, the driver quits responding to arp requests even after wakeup. I've tried to disable the power savings through the /etc/modprobe.conf but that is not working either.

I will update the kernel module with this change.

No, it is the standard behavior of Linux for users, except root. As root you can create a weak password for a user, there is just a warning.

Didn't know root could do that..... thanks for the tip.........(Deleting busybox source :)

Will do..
I was digging down into the driver on github. The top level directory for rtl8192cu shows no recent modification, but digging down the directory tree, there was a patch made to the driver 9 days ago (Jan-28) I will test the latest 3.12.9 kernel too.

http://distro.ibiblio.org/tinycorelinux/5.x/armv6/tcz/wireless-3.12.7-piCore+.tcz.md5.txt
is a zero length file. I downloaded manually and generated a md5sum for the file.
The tcz looks intact, but when I try to load the module, I get an invalid module format error. That is what happens when I try to match modules that I compile with kernels that I didn't compile.
