This could be a complete red herring, but on the off chance that it's
useful info:

I'm seeing this issue on an Ultimate-N 6300 in a two-antenna laptop
(with only antenna terminals 1 and 2 connected).  This configuration
works fine under Windows, but causes high packet loss under Linux Mint
12.  Could the issue possibly be caused by only using two antennas on a
3-antenna card?  It's tempting to speculate that maybe the Windows
drivers correctly detect this configuration, but the Linux drivers
attempt to use all three antennas.

I wonder if any commercial laptop manufacturers configure three-antenna
cards with two antennas?  I may try to see if I can install a third
antenna in the laptop, either temporarily or permanently and report
back.
