I have been testing Intrepid for quite some time now. I have recently switched to 2.6.27-1-generic to test this particular issue, but the slow network performances are still there. However, as mentioned in the upstream bug report, using the module option qos_enable=0 solves the problem without seemingly affecting network performances in other configurations. Of cours this would have to be tested more thoroughly but I think it would be sound to add options iwlagn qos_enable=0 to /etc/modprobe.d/options with a comment in this file as a workaround.
Please note that the orignial bug (ping issue) has been closed but that another one monitoring the data transfer rate issue was opened some times ago (http://www.intellinuxwireless.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1669) There hasn't been many activity for this bug report recently however, besides the last comments on qos_enable=0. -- iwl4965 unusable: packet loss, slow network https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/183796 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
