I installed both ubuntu 8.10 and kubuntu 8.10 on a dell inspiron 5150 laptop. The wireless performance is both is very poor. Max throughput using wpa seems to be 1.5mb/sec and maybe a little higher using wep. I tried default drivers and the legacy broadcom driver. The throughput was the same. Prior to installing ubuntu the laptop was running windows xp. max throughput with the same router and wirelss card was about 20 mb/sec.
