[Bug 1002884] Re: 8086:4222 [Dell Vostro 1500] Slow 3945abg - 12.04
** Description changed:
I was suffering slow wifi transfers with my Vostro 1500 (Intel 3945abg).
10.04 was ok, but since then, no matter what, the speed has been awful.
Recently upgraded to 12.04, but no-luck. Transfers between 40KBs and
- 70KBs... Wired connections to the same router allow me to connect up to
- 320KBs.... You can see previous info at bug #621265
+ 70KBs... Wireless via another client transfers at 300 KBs. Wired
+ connections to the same router allow me to connect up to 320KBs.... You
+ can see previous info at bug #621265
- WORKAROUND: ndiswrapper works better: 1.27 Mbps
+ WORKAROUND: ndiswrapper works better: 158 KB (1.27 Mbps).
