Title:
WiFi is slower on Ubuntu than Windows.

Status in Network Manager GNOME Applet:

Bug description:
My wireless internet connection, no matter what dongle I use as an
interface, is always slower and I have more DNS issues "unable to find
website" than what I ever get on even the Windows 10 Developer Beta
running on my same machine within a different hard disk.
Using Ubuntu, my internet connection will often slow to a screeching
halt, videos fail to stream properly from popular sites a'la Youtube
or such, I get DNS issues reported by Chrome and Firefox in which my
current connection cannot "find" a website although connected, and
last but not least, my connection will cut in and out intermittently
though I have set the MAC address of my router as the BSSID. Windows
10 does not give me these issues, and has been more stable
connectivity-wise from day one of the first public beta of Windows 10.
Something is terribly wrong, and I do not know what. I have tried what
seems like everything to fix the problem, and I still have the same
issues. If Ubuntu cannot support common wireless devices and drivers,
why would the general public want to prefer Ubuntu over something more
stable?
