Definitely. With libertas, the largest class of issues by *far* that
we've seen are controller related. I seem to recall that I've pulled
about 6Mbps through the card using a normal Ricoh controller from a
Fujitsu laptop. I can recheck that.

What specific kernel version are you using? There have been some
latency fixes in recent kernels, but would be good to know just to make
sure.
