Emily, I had exactly those symptoms earlier during the Karmic Alpha/Beta
period for a long while on my Asus 1008HA (with Apple Airport Extreme
base station). I even reported it in bug
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/442644 but it did actually seem to
resolve itself before release. (Reminds me; after submitting this I
should go there and say so, not that any devs were showing much interest...)

I continued to have other issues (poor signal strength, the excessive
disassociates/reassociates of this bug report, occasional loss of
connection even though network manager thought it was OK) up until and
including the release, but earlier comments on this bug report suggested
installing the backports module (linux-backports-modules-karmic) and
since I did so the performance has, for me at least, been basically
perfect. Suggest trying that for your issue too. :-)
