Public bug reported:

I experience very slow download speed when connecting to a Cicso EPC3928
cable modem. The speedtest.net reports about 0.2Mbps download speed and
1.1Mbps upload speed (obvious discrepancy). If I connect to the modem
via network cable, the speed gets to 30Mbps/1.1Mbps (that's the expected
speed for my line). If I connect a different device over wifi I get
5Mbps/1.1Mbsp (acceptable for a wifi connection). My conclusion
therefore is that the problem lies in the wifi connection between my
computer and the cable modem and is not due to any other devices in the
network.

The wifi connection was working well in the past with other routers. As
there were no problems I never measured the speed. Currently I don't
have access to any other wifi router/modem that I could connect to and
measure the speed.

After extensive Googling, the only widely mentioned possible cause that
I found was 802.11n protocol so I tried to disable it with "options
iwlwifi 11n_disable=1". However, this had no effect whatsoever.

The cable modem has been provided by the ISP and I currently cannot
access its config to gather more info or test different settings in
order to pinpoint possible causes for this problem.
