Hi, I'm another guy trying substitute his Windows XP by Ubuntu 8.04 (...and I'm about to give up). The last problem I found so far is exactly defined in this bug: MSI PC54G2 with rt2500 drivers and Internet extremely slow.
Question: Is adding the lines... ifconfig wlan0 up iwconfig wlan0 rate 54M to /etc/rc.local a temporal solution (but 100% functional) till this bug is fixed? I understood that the only consequence of this bug is that the adapter is initialized with a baudrate 1Mb. Are there any other additional consequeces? I've tried this solution, after deactivating IPv6 (which is another source of speed problems), but internet is still quite slow (compared with the same system running Widnows). So I'm not sure if I should look for other problems (hardware? router? Firefox 3?) or try to compile the last drivers as described in the last post. By the way, despite my complainments: good work. -- [Hardy] Low bandwidth with rt2400 / rt2500 drivers https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/190515 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
