Peter, I use a bunch of 8188CUS/8192CU dongles and have tried rtl8xxxu. The biggest issue, (well, not really an issue, reliability is more important to me), is the lack of throughput. I typically see ~500KB/s, rather than MBs. Having said that, it's definitely already more stable than the upstream rtl8192cu driver. (Which is definitely afflicted with crap throughput, as well as stalls and disconnects from AP.) The Realtek vendor, (8192cu driver that the Pi people patch into their kernel by default), is still my driver of choice for the 8188CUS/8192CU, by virtue of the fact it is stable and decent throughput. Anyway, a round of applause for Jes! And hopefully as he starts to work on features, like 40MHz channels, rtl8xxxu throughput will improve.
