Mine is a usb edimax ac1750, it works quite a bit better than the one that came with my laptop, and has up to 3 streams vs the laptop only having 1. And the one in my laptop did also misbehave from time to time. And as others have mentioned, you only have to download a "new" version when the kernel interfaces change enough. I also have had at least once to get it from a new location (updated fork that fixed the kernel interface changes). It is a pain, but it works better than the built-in one, it would be nice if it were in the kernel, but opening a "bug" with fedora (or kernel.org) is unlikely to fix that, as I believe the request to include code has to come from the original author, and not just any random requester.
