I just updated to the latest Ubuntu kernel and had the same slow connection again.

I downloaded the latest compat-wireless source from:

    http://wireless.kernel.org/download/compat-wireless-2.6/compat-wireless-2011-03-18.tar.bz2

and followed the same rough instructions I posted in #298:

    $ tar -xjvf compat-wireless-2011-03-18.tar.bz2
    $ cd compat-wireless-2011-03-18
    $ ./scripts/driver-select restore
    $ make
    $ sudo make install
    $ sudo make wlunload
    $ sudo modprobe iwl3945

I am happy to report that all is running stably with good download speeds again.
