Robert, Realtek based devices on the 8188/8192 family of chipsets tend to work very reliably with the VENDOR (Realtek provided) drivers, but one of the many issues with using the mainline drivers, (provided with the Fedora kernel), is that they "fall off" the network after a period of time, and you'll need to reboot to get them going again. Down/up network or remove/insmod the module isn't enough. As regards current wi-fi hardware, there is good mainline support for Atheros and Intel, but at the bottom end of the market, (ie. cheap), Ralink (Mediatek or whatever they are calling themselves now), and Realtek.... you need to be using out-of-tree drivers. Just MHO.
