Ranger/Rogue is pretty good. They both benefit from high Dexterity, so you can easily swap for powers from the other class. You'll be very strikery and able to do a lot of damage to a single foe.

The only problem is that ranger powers can be used with any weapon you are proficient with but rogue powers need specific weapons like light blades/slings/hand crossbow (or something like that)

With the ranger you can wield a 1 handed weapon in your off hand as an offhand weapon so using a light weapon takes the damage capabilities away from your ranger powers. Where as if you have sneak attack you can't use it with the weapons that are great for your ranger powers. If you go ranged ranger and rogue you run into the same problem as before and would have to swap out weapons all the time.

Also are you hybrid or multiclassing?

On the outside the two seem capable as a great combo but their powers interfer with each other to much. You would be better off going Sorc/Rogue or Ranger/Avenger
