Public bug reported:
I am trying to transfer data between two notebooks connected using their
Wi-Fi radios.
Machine 1: HP ZBook 15 configured to serve as a Wi-Fi hotspot. Network
controller: Intel Corporation Centrino Advanced-N 6235 (rev 24). The
machine also has a mobile broadband USB device (Huawei E3251) which
connects it to the internet.
Machine 2: Fujitsu-Siemens AMILO Pro V3205. It is connected to machine 1
using wireless adapter. Network controller: Intel Corporation
PRO/Wireless 3945ABG [Golan] Network Connection (rev 02).
Both machines run latest development version of ubuntu 14.04. (Machine 1
a 64-bit system, machine 2 a 32-bit system.) The Wi-Fi hotspot (running
on machine 1) employs the WEP authentication. The connection speed is
only about 0.1 MiB/s, i.e. about 0.8 Mbps. This is far below what the
Wi-Fi adapters in both machines are able to do. The particular program I
used was rsync. The data were transferred from machine 2 to machine 1.
The speed was the same slow for rsync invoked either on machine 1 or 2.
Yesterday I tried a different way to connect the two laptops: I created
a Wi-Fi hotspot using an android smartphone with a WPA2 PSK
autentication. That other wireless connection between the two laptops
was at least one order of magnitude faster. (I do not remember precise
number but surely it was much much faster.)
