Sorry to say but comments like that do make me laugh.. With antennas size doesn;t matter but it's more dependant on the resonance of the antenna.. The "tiny patches" are probably 1/4 wavelength on 2.4ghz and the only disadvantage over external antennas is positioning (but you can always rotate the superhub or lay it on it's side. The large external antennas on some hubs are not colliners (i.e.. stacked antennas) and will probably only give a fraction of a db gain over the superhub ones..
More than likely it's a combination of the firmware and the associated circuitry of the 2.4ghz PA and receive causing the issue.. Yep a bad design and a decent antenna might help but don't solely blame the antennas
