Public bug reported: I have a Realtek 8188ee WiFi adapter. Not the 8188ce which has been previously reported on.
My WiFi signal varies about every 15 seconds and my speed goes from normal to nothing constantly. Changing channels on my router seems to help but it doesn't resolve the issue. I have seen other report of the 8188ce having the same problem and it is related to the kernel since the driver is built into the kernel.
