The backported driver is pretty good, but it still has a tendency to disconnect when under load. When it disconnects, it will not reconnect, and plugging in my other wireless device and attempting to connect with that will often cause a kernel panic straight away. In the best case scenario, I'll get lots of Oops reports, programs will freeze up and eventually the kernel will go down anyway.
