With a few exceptions I won't mention, every Linux distro has something it is best at "OOB" compared to others. What chipset is your wifi card? Some distros include drivers that others choose not because of questionable legal issues and/or kernel tainting. Why wifi card is Atheros - which has a good driver (madwifi) that I think ubuntu ships, but Fedora doesn't because (at least in part) it taints the kernel.
