Slow/unresponsive wifi

I've been enjoying developing on the Nanopi Duo. I do a lot of work over ssh/wifi on the device. It will work acceptably for a time, but then feed back with slow to a crawl. Sometimes it can take 30-40 seconds to echo a key press. I've tried this on a wireless network with only two devices. I've tried adding a wifi antenna. It looks like this is using the XR819 radio. It looks like those drivers haven't been touched in a year.

Are others having similar problems? I don't see reports on this forum. Any ideas for a work around or update?

Thanks!
Tawn
