I have a EliteBook 8530w, with Intel WiFi 5300 too, and bought a new
D-Link DIR-855 with 5GHz WLAN and 802.11n. I've got the exact same
message.
uname -a
Linux alpha 2.6.31-12-generic #41-Ubuntu SMP Wed Oct 7 19:37:12 UTC 2009 x86_64
GNU/Linux
iwconfig wlan0 says something interessting:

rmmod iwlagn & modprobe iwlagn helps for me. Sometimes i need to do it
several times, then suddenly ping works, and sometimes for longer times,
sometimes only for a few seconds...
