Right now I am seriously considering switching over to Fedora or openSUSE and scrapping Ubuntu. I am perfectly able to tweak conf files and apply workarounds, but I don't want to do it every minute of every day. I have work to do other than get the system running.
It seems to me that the management and developers of Ubuntu are lazy and trying to deny the problem. The problem is there whether they are a victim of it or not.
Articles saying how slow Ubuntu networking is compared to Windows 7 is certainly not going to help the Linux community at all. I know the developers put a lot of work into this release, but it won't be much more to apply a workaround. This bug has existed for over two months and that is plenty of time to apply a workaround and potentially a fix.
