Title:
  Intel Wireless-N 2230 4x faster in Windows 7 than 15.04 (iwlwifi)

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  My Intel wireless card is significantly slower in Ubuntu than it is in
  Windows 7. Turning off Power Management didn't change anything.

  According to iperf (with the laptop a couple of feet from the router and the server plugged into it):
