Bug Description
Hello,
Ever since installing Maverick (Ubuntu 10.10 amd64) the wireless connection has been very bad. It is unstable (looses the connection or is unable to connect to an access point with full signal) and very slow when connected. I am positive that this is not due to the access point, as I have tried with several APs and my current workaround is to use the USB-tethering of my phone with the same AP.
EDIT: package version: 5.60.48.
There is also a thread on ubuntuforums with quite a few people reporting this issue:

I'll be glad to provide more info.
thank you
Paul

similar experience on 6,2 MBP. Running on battery causes extreme slowness; plugging it back in resolves it. This is repeatable.
