the alias in the line below depends on the exact PID and VID of your device so you may need to adjust it:

  boot.kernelModules = [ "rt2800usb" ];
  boot.extraModprobeConfig = ''
    alias usb:v0B05p17E8d*dc*dsc*dp*ic*isc*ip*in* rt2800usb
    install rt2800usb ${pkgs.kmod}/sbin/modprobe --ignore-install rt2800usb && echo 0x0B05 0x17E8 >/sys/bus/usb/drivers/rt2800usb/new_id
  '';
