The upstream mainline (3.15.0-031500rc2-generic #201404201435) has seemed to make a difference for the better. I will continue to monitor.

When connected to a hotspot it is unusable (multiple disconnections, ICMP times nearly 8000MS). It does appear to be the chipset specifically, because USB tethering or being wired via ethernet do not exhibit this problem, it is only using the WiFi chip.
