I am also experiencing this bug with iwl3945 on my amd64 hardy system. I've just tried to recompile the ubuntu kernel sources with the in-kernel iwlwifi enabled and that works a whole lot better. With the version in l-u-m i get about 100KB/s download speed with my computer about half a meter from my AP, and 500ms+ latency when downloading something. With the in-kernel version i get 1300KB/s and 100ms latency at that speed. The only things i changed in the kernel config was to enable the iwlwifi and the in-kernel alsa driver for my soundcard (for convenience).
I think that if this bug is not fixed soon, maybe Hardy should be released with the in-kernel version of iwl, at least for the 3945, because right now it's pretty unusable. I use WPA2 on my wlan, but I've seen the same problem on unencrypted networks. -- major throughput difference (between upload and download) when using iwl3945 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/176271 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
