Traditionally speaking, these problems are usually not the hardware itself - it tends to be crappy Linux drivers. Somebody gets support working for a chip on some product, and then somebody else does a cut/paste of the code to make some other product work. They see it getting signal lock under optimal tuning conditions and declare success. Making any given device work *well* tends to be much harder than making it work at all. Want to rule out bad hardware design? Drop it into a Windows machine and see how it performs. If it works fine under Windows but poorly under Linux, then you definitely have a Linux driver problem.
