[Bug 653945] Re: MacBook Pro 5.2 - Wifi unusable (wl driver)

[Rolf Offermanns]

apport information

** Tags added: apport-collected

** Description changed:

  Since I update to Maverick my Wifi is unusable (really!) slow. It worked
  fine on Lucid. I know this might be a wl driver issue, but according the
  packages.ubuntu.com the driver is the same on Lucid and Maverick.
  
  Here what I tried (found in forums):
  
  1. iwconfig eth1 set power off
  -> improves the situation, but only partly. Without this I get download rates < 10k/s. After this command the download rates (e.g. in ktorrent) steadily change from < 10k/s to > 900k/s *and back*. Up and down the whole time.
  
  2. Recompiling the kernel and without "CONFIG_CFG80211_DEFAULT_PS".
  -> No change.
  
- This is an unfortunate regression from Lucid and I really hope it can be
- fixed.
