I will most likely test it soon. However, later after the bug rerport I discovered, that ubuntu supports also creation of WPA/WPA2-secured hotspot and, surprisingly, this more secure network provides full speed, about 10 times faster than the WEP hotspot.
It is pitty that if one goes to the Control Centre and opens the network setup, it is possible to create WEP hotspot only. (At least I could not see how to create WPA from the Control Centre.) Later I noticed that clicking on the Network Manager menu provides the richer choice of hot- spot networking options, including the WPA (through the Create New Wi-FI Network option). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1289712 Title: extremly slow wireless connection between two notebooks To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1289712/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
