Title:
  10ec:8179 [HP Pavilion 17-e171nr Notebook PC] RTL8188EE driver
  regression in 3.13.0-24.  Extremely slow network performance

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  I'm experiencing excruciatingly slow wireless performance on upgrading
  to Trusty.  There are numerous reports of simlar symptoms on the
  forums, and the solution seems to be to download/install a newer or
  older kernel, or build a new version of the rtl8188ee driver.

  Here are some examples:
