[Bug 1409102] Re: WiFi is slower on Ubuntu than Windows.

[Jeb E.]

UPDATE - CONTAINS FIX!
I tested out the PPA and though performing a software updater cache reset and update check, I still had to manually install the .DEB file as the Software Updater told me that there were no updates available.
After a quick install and reboot of the computer, my average internet speeds multiplied by 18.107 times!
