The backports module also solved my problem.
Before, transferring large files over the local network would crash my system 
within seconds. I have now been able to transfer several large files without 
problems. I still see error messages in dmesg, but they don't seem to cause too 
much trouble.

For those still experiencing problems, it might be useful to know that you can 
use this command to check which module is actually being used:
modinfo iwlagn|grep filename

The module in backports is in /lib/modules/2.6.27-7-generic/updates/iwlagn.ko.
If you need to find out what package the file belongs to, you can do for example
dpkg -S /lib/modules/2.6.27-7-generic/updates/iwlagn.ko
