You may also check that:
1) USB wake is disabled in BIOS
2) no wake on network access in your Power Savings Pref Pane
 
But most importantly, ensure you have a driver package compatible with OS X El Capitan. Realtek's web site does not list much drivers beyond OS X Mountain Lion 10.8 for 802.11a/b/g/n single-chip devices, so check the dongle's manufacturer's web site.

 

The best solution is to opt for a compatible mini-PCIe or 1/2 mini-PCIe card as suggested by Jake. DW1510 or DW1550 are indeed great hi-speed 802.11n cards.
