[Bug 491362] Re: Intel Corporation Wireless WiFi Link 5100 connection too slow

 

Donatas Olsevičius, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't
been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an
issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development
release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .

If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in
the development release from a Terminal
(Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather
and attach updated debug information to this report:

apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number>

Also, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Please do not test the daily folder, but the one all the way at the bottom. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example:
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.11

This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's
Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your
understanding.

Title:
  Intel Corporation Wireless WiFi Link 5100 connection too slow

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I have Ubuntu 9.04 installed on Acer Aspire 5739G.

  lspci says I have "09:00.0 Ethernet controller: Attansic Technology
  Corp. Device 1063 (rev c0)" and I use the driver installed with Ubuntu
  9.04.

  When I connect to any wireless network I only have 1Mb/s (iwlist wlan0
  rate).

  $ sudo iwlist wlan0 scanning
  shows that my router support up to 54 Mb/s.

  After I do
  $ sudo iwconfig wlan0 rate 54Mb/s
  it gets a little better, but still far from 54 Mb/s.

  
  Please tell me if I have to provide any additional information.
