Web pages load slowly if at all. I believe it is related to this bug in fedora: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=506372 I tried installing linux-backports-modules-wireless-lucid-generic (linux-backports-modules-wireless-2.6.32-21-generic at the time of this report) and also tried loading ath5k with: modprobe ath5k nohwcrypt=1 AND modprobe ath5k nohwcrypt=0 Neither of these had any effect on the problem. However, installing the 2.6.33 kernel from the mainline ppa fixes the problem completely! http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v2.6.33/ I will attach the results of pinging my router under both the 2.6.32 and 2.6.33 kernels for proof of the fix. A backported patch for the lucid kernel would be great! :-) ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 10.04 Package: linux-image-2.6.32-21-generic 2.6.32-21.32 Regression: No Reproducible: Yes ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.32-21.32-generic 2.6.32.11+drm33.2 Uname: Linux 2.6.32-21-generic x86_64 AlsaVersion: Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.21.
