Bug Description
My Intel wireless card is significantly slower in Ubuntu than it is in Windows 7. Turning off Power Management didn't change anything. I'm using the latest upstream firmware:
iwlwifi 0000:07:00.0: loaded firmware version 18.168.6.1 op_mode iwldvm
According to iperf (with the laptop a couple of feet from the router and the server plugged into it):
