I'd help you, but I gave up a long time ago trying to make bluetooth work. It's really a shame that this bug is almost 3 years old and it still exists. If you still want to give it a shot, the last ubuntu version on which bluetooth works is 13.10.

For wifi, you can see this thread, there's a package which works flawlessly in Ubuntu 14.04 (I've not tested it on later versions though):

The card in itself isn't shit as you say, because in Windoze everything is ok. Poor is the support from the Ubuntu team, they're releasing unstable versions of Ubuntu where a lot of bugs are still present, and they don't even make what's already there more stable. That sucks. I must agree, yeah, all the Linux stuff is cool, but the support for specific hardware is by far worse than in any Windoze version. I would fix this is I knew enough about low level C, but meh.
