I can confirm a wrong Bitrate measurement on my box with 3.10-rcX. Coonecting to 2.4 and 5ghz networks is working fine (using wicd), but I always get verly low bitrates. It seems that the "real" bitrate is not affected. I do not have any performance problems. But iwconfig shows me sppeds from 1 to 13 mbit/s. le@w530 /lu $ /usr/sbin/lspci | grep -i net 00:19.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82579LM Gigabit Network Connection (rev 04) 03:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation Centrino Ultimate-N 6300 (rev 3e) patched against rc7 and working much better now! :) either router or iwlwifi driver reports not very accurate, because the two rates i get from them differ. but i think this is not related to this issue. Will test later tonight or tomorrow. glad to see this got seen and (hopefully) fixed. Seems to be working, glad to see this fixed |
