I install vivid and tried to download some packages (for an upgrade to wily). After initial successs download slowed and pings to google.com were equally 1000ms. Other computers on my network for pings of 30ms. On installing this package and rebooting the packages all downloaded fine and pings to google.com were 30ms reliably for the 30 minutes it took to download them.
I installed 2014.11.18-1ubuntu1~ubuntu15.04.1 from vivid-proposed ** Tags removed: verification-needed ** Tags added: verification-done -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to wireless-regdb in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1284093 Title: Please update regulations to support VHT Status in wireless-regdb package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in wireless-regdb source package in Vivid: Fix Committed Status in wireless-regdb source package in Wily: Fix Released Bug description: Only very recent versions of wireless-regdb have support for VHT (80mhz channels); in addition, all current kernels have a bug that will cause your card to fail to associate with a VHT ap when your local regdb didn't allow VHT: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=70881 I have updated the existing Debian bug requesting this too: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=729089 Well, more precisely I have emailed the update but it hasn't gone through yet. :) I would recommend updating to 2013.11.27 (current upstream) as it includes other regulatory fixes. I would also recommend applying this to at least Precise and Trusty, possibly Saucy since it is still supported. Here is the update that should post to the Debian bug soon: "I would much appreciate this, especially you make the jump to 2013.11.27. The new regdb will also solve issues with 802.11ac; the referenced version appears to be the first with support for 80mhz channels. Without the new regdb (or a patch the kernel that masks the symptoms, below), when you connect to an AP that supports 80mhz channels, you are disconnected with a nearly useless error. Link to the ticket, with details and the symptom-masking patch that will be in future kernels: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=70881 It would be great if we could get the new regdb upstream into Debian asap; in the meantime I will try to get an updated version into a ppa for Ubuntu users at least. ;)" To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/wireless-regdb/+bug/1284093/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
