Well I've found my solution for this. Just got new wireless card, Intel 5100, for $10 on eBay. Speed up and down with new card is 20Mbps, just like on Windows. Even with older kernel 2.6.32 I only got 12Mbps max on Intel 3945. I'm glad to see the back of this bug. -- You received this bug

I will try the wpa_supplicant thing in a moment. Do you think it could have something to do with the new network manager daemon handling? I know that starting/stopping it used to be /etc/init.d/network-manager start/stop and now it's just restart networkmanager or something like that. -- You

This problem prompted me to order a new wireless card, Intel 5100. Only cost about $10 on eBay so I figured it was worth a try. I'll be curious to see if it helps or whether the Intel driver bug applies to other cards as well. Eric: I tried to install ndiswrapper recently and couldn't get it
