UPDATE: I ran into a newer driver within a PPA assembled by Launchpad user "bodyakov", https://launchpad.net/~bodyakov/+archive/ubuntu/wi-fi . Attached to this message is the (AMD64) ftl8192cu driver, version 4.0.2.9000-2... I am currently running the driver version 3.19.0-15-lowlatency.
I am going to add the PPA and/or install the driver manually and I'll post the results shortly. ** Attachment added: "NEWDRIVER" https://bugs.launchpad.net/network-manager-applet/+bug/1409102/+attachment/4385749/+files/rtl8192cu-dkms_4.0.2.9000-2_amd64.deb -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1409102 Title: WiFi is slower on Ubuntu than Windows.
