I've been doing some tests since I realized I was suffering from this bug. My internet speed is supposed by be 30 Mbps. I always get about 28.5-29.0 Mbps with a wired ethernet connection, no matter what machine or kernel or OS. Wireless differs. On Linux I get better performance with the older kernel, like everyone else:
kernel 2.6.35-22: 2.1 Mbps max down, about 3 Mbps up kernel 2.6.32-25: 12.0 Mbps max down and up It's better with the old kernel, but it's still pretty bad compared with when I boot into Windows: Vista SP2: 20.0 Mbps max up and down It's hard to believe Vista could out-perform linux at anything, but this is ridiculous. Even when performing at its best, the iwlwifi driver is crappy compared to what I get on Windows. :( -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/621265 Title: Slow Wireless Connection in Intel 3945abg -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
