Just recently built a new system with this wifi card in it, and I am experiencing random lag spikes of up at 2000ms when pinging my E3000 router. I've tried the stock firmware on the router as well as the tomato variety I was using. I've tried both Windows 8 and Linuxmint 14 and the problem still exists. I did not have this issue on my laptop, nor do I have the problem with my wife's laptop. Is there any sort of setting in the bios that might affect this that I am overlooking? Could there be a problem with the antenna or maybe a hardware issue? I'm about to just call timewarner and have them relocate the cable modem to this room so I do not have to deal with wireless. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks

Realtek is poop and more poop seriously. Look at any thing broadcom or intel if possible.
 
It's built into my motherboard so I'm sorta stuck with it. No PCI slots, its a mini-itx.
 
Under linux, make sure you have the latest realtek drivers, some of them that come bundled in are 'meh' at best.
