Hi, I am using UBuntu 14.04.1 LTS with kernel 3.13.0-32. It comes with the Realtek wifi driver . I could run wifi from the live cd image. However connection used to drop after sometime . Going through this bug report I tried the Fix on #38. It stops the connection drop but there is constant slowing down of connection. If I disconnect and reconnect the wifi connection from NM applet, connection comes back. See the ping report attached. uname -a Linux flex2 3.13.0-32-generic #57-Ubuntu SMP Tue Jul 15 03:51:08 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
