Wel, I just ordered the Intel 5300 a week ago and it's still not stable. I have a complete system freeze four times this week, before that none. I just inserted my previous Intel wifi because I need a stable system. Using a Dell XPS M1530 laptop. $ uname -a Linux laptop 2.6.35-25-generic #44-Ubunt

Thanks lightning9, it's good to know there is a workaround available. I'm not willing to try it quite yet as using 5GHz N isn't a mission critical feature for me; it's more of an annoyance that I cannot use it. I'm going to wait a while and hopefully someone will fix the iwlagn driver. Thanks for

With the current solution iwlagn often consumes 100% of one cpu. The error message is " iwlagn :03:00.0: Can not allocate SKB buffers". See bug 250139. As a result I am looking for an alternative driver again. Still no response from Jean. Looks like he has better things to do than fixing bugs.
