I upgraded to the latest stable release of the 3.0.x series kernel, 3.0.10. For testing I removed the line "options wlagn 11n_disable=1" from options.conf in /etc/modprobe.d/ and reboot into the new kernel. This problem still persists in the latest 3.0.x series kernel. I re- added the options for the wlagn driver in options.conf and reboot back into the 3.0.10 kernel, and connectivity went back to normal.
Connection is stable on the 3.0.x series kernel with 11n_disable=1 and stays stable. However, with the 3.1.x series kernel with 11n_disable=1, the connection is stable for only a few minutes at a time, which then it drops the connection all together. Either series kernel without 11n_disable=1 results in a completely unstable and unusable wireless connection. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to network-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/836250 Title: [Oneiric] [Regression] Intel Corporation Centrino Ultimate-N 6300 poor networking, packet loss and very slow Lenovo X201 and T500 laptops Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in “linux” source package in Oneiric: Triaged Status in “network-manager” source package in Oneiric: Invalid Status in “linux” source package in Precise: Triaged Status in “network-manager” source package in Precise: Invalid Bug description: This may be either network-manager or kernel, depending on triage... I have verified this on both a Lenovo X201 and a Lenovo T500 laptop. Both work perfectly with fully updated 10.10 and 11.04 versions of Ubuntu. However, booting into a fully updated 11.10 (as of 28/08/11) I get very poor wireless networking performance. Between 6-10% packet loss, very very slow connection and transfer rate. All in all, practically unusable. I have reported the bug on the X201 laptop, I will add the similar logs from the T500 also if required. As soon as I swap back to either 10.10 or 11.04 I get perfect wireless, it's only on 11.10 that I get problems, this would suggest it's not hardware or configuration on my side. I have had this since first installing 11.10 which was a little after Alpha 2. Wired connection is fine.
