Bug Description
Distribution: hardy/amd64
Got a new AP last night that supports 802.11n and tried to use it with my current config - according to iwconfig, it never connected on more that 56mbps. I downloaded the sources for linux-ubuntu-
This is from lspci and lspci -n:
0c:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 4965 AG or AGN Network Connection (rev 61)
0c:00.0 0280: 8086:4229 (rev 61)

I have two different laptops, a Dell XPS M1330 and a Lenovo T61, both with exactly the same WiFi adapter (Intel 4965 AGN; the same lspci output as shown above). I have a NetGear WNR834B WiFi router. With Windows Vista, it does connect with 802.11n speed, but with Ubuntu 7.10 (32-bit) and Ubuntu 8.04 Alpha 6 (64-bit), I only get 802.11g (54 Mbit/s).
