OK, have done some more testing - things are more complicated than I thought. Unfortunately, my hopes that the upstream kernels has fixed my wireless has been dashed...
I've tested the following kernels: 2.6.31-02063112-generic_2.6.31-02063112_i386 from the mainline 2.6.32-16 - latest for lucid 2.6.33-020633-generic_2.6.33-020633_i386 from the mainline 2.6.34-999-generic_2.6.34-999.201003151003_i386 from the current mainline the following are observations for each kernel: 2.6.31 - wireless was perfect - same wireless broadband speed as RJ45 connection (245 kBs) 2.6.32 - wireless was intermittent & slow - wireless broadband speed was max 100kBs - RJ45 was max 245 kBs). phy0 -> rt2500pci_set_device_state constantly outputted to kernel log. 2.6.33 - wireless was intermittent & slow - wireless broadband speed was max 100kBs - RJ45 was max 245 kBs). no errors outputted to kernel log 2.6.34 - wireless was intermittent & slow - wireless broadband speed was max 100kBs - RJ45 was max 245 kBs). phy0 -> rt2500pci_set_device_state constantly outputted to kernel log. The only conclusion i can think of is that 2.6.32 broke the rt2500pci driver and that this has carried through to all the upstream kernels. -- rt2500pci wireless regression in lucid https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/539794 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
