Yes, following http://edtake.wordpress.com/2010/05/04/ubuntu-slow- wireless-after-upgrading-to-10-04/ didn't helped either, in contrary, I completely lost my eth1 wlan port, but purging linux-backports-modules- wireless-lucid-generic helped.
BTW: According to the wifi mailing list this regression was introduced actually in Sept 2009 by fixing an rt2500pci bug which led to a rewrite of some parts of the wifi kernel stack. The rewritten parts are a common code path of some drivers and as such the problem is persistent for many hardware types. I couldn't identify a more fitting launchpad bug and * there is no work around * nobody with insight made a blog post yet describing the problem in more detail * activating pre-release packages in ubuntu makes no difference; there is no fix, not even an untested but * work on the wifi mainling list is ongoing and there are success reports. -- Sudden drop of connecton speed https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/581936 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
