Intel NICs.

Realtek 8139 was utter trash.
Realtek 8169 is less trash and pretty usable under Linux (the windows drivers are garbage).

Any realtek wireless NIC sucks, at least on Linux.

Why? It's true, Realtek much like Broadcom doesn't give a shit. if you're doing Linux, just get Intel NICs, those will work without a problem

It's probably just a driver issue or something. The Realtek 8188's aren't that bad.

Atheros wifi cards are pretty good.
AR5BHB112 is nice.

Atheros in general works well on Linux. Realtek isn't horrid, but they're not the best.
