Thread: Slow wireless internet on ubuntu 11.04, samsung r530 with atheros AR9285
hey, i'm having issue here, i'm getting slow speeds on laptop when using wireless, did speed test , came out 2mb/s, when plug router goes 13mb/s. many pages freeze , need refreshing.
laptop has atheros ar9285.
ifconfig
iwconfigcode:wlan0 link encap:ethernet hwaddr 78:e4:00:35:72:6a inet addr:192.168.1.5 bcast:192.168.1.255 mask:255.255.255.0 inet6 addr: fe80::7ae4:ff:fe35:726a/64 scope:link broadcast running multicast mtu:1500 metric:1 rx packets:40646 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 tx packets:29990 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 rx bytes:50617678 (50.6 mb) tx bytes:7260210 (7.2 mb)
not sure else needed appreciated, i'm not great @ moment.code:wlan0 ieee 802.11bgn essid:"talktalk-92b6f6" mode:managed frequency:2.412 ghz access point: 00:26:5a:92:b6:f6 bit rate=135 mb/s tx-power=17 dbm retry long limit:7 rts thr:off fragment thr:off power management:off link quality=48/70 signal level=-62 dbm rx invalid nwid:0 rx invalid crypt:0 rx invalid frag:0 tx excessive retries:0 invalid misc:345 missed beacon:0
i suspect part of known issue (i found thread while searching see if have published "real" fix it.) in thread, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1688173 , there work-around listed (disabling hardware encryption or that.) not using workaround have rather long cable can use backup, has occurred me since 11.04 came out, disappointed it's not been fixed in update yet.
