Comment 24 for bug 625692

I cannot follow on why this bug was marked invalid, as there were people having this problem and no further request for information has been made:

I seem to encounter the same problem in maverick with unbearably slow connection speed (mean ~ 1 kB with short bursts (around 1 second up to 30 kB) -> in lucid I had stable 600 to 800 kB of speed (as I still have them on my windows computer as well, it does not seem to be a network problem).
