So there are many companies offering WiFi chips: Intel, Mediatek, Qualcomm, Realtek etc... who makes the best ones?

I am sorry if this question sounds stupid, because in the tech world it's best to compare the products themselves, not the brand. However I am not familiar with how this sector of the hardware industry works and product lines of each company. So I hope your answers can enlighten me and others in the same boat.

Realtek ones were always good to me. I had Intel once and it was real bad. I guess it was drivers problem. It would go to power saving mode during normal use, would get real slow for no reason. Had to change lots of settings in control panel and even then I would shat itself from time to time. But this was years ago, so IDK maybe now Intel is decent..?
