I just found a solution for RT2500 slow connection problem (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=7605785). One proposes to install Wicd.
iwconfig returns : wlan0 Bit Rate=1 Mb/s Tx-Power=20 dBm where iwlist wlan0 bitrate returns wlan0 unknown bit-rate information. Current Bit Rate=54 Mb/s iwconfig <-> iwlist ???? after setting sudo iwconfig wlan0 rate 54M I have a normal working wireless network again and both commands are returning the same bitrate. Well, for the time being I'll have to issue this command each time I boot Ubuntu -- UNR Ath9K unstable connection https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/378156 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
