The following workaround has solved my issue on my ThinkPad X220 with Intel Centrino Wireless-N 1000 card using iwlwifi driver (except, of course, that I don't have N wireless capabilities now):

1) Create a file at /etc/modprobe.d/intel_11n_disable.conf containing this one line:
options iwlwifi 11n_disable=1

2) Run this command:
sudo update-initramfs -u

3) Reboot

Maybe others with the iwlwifi driver should try doing this. Notice how it's the same fix others have mentioned with the iwlagn driver, except that "iwlagn" was replaced by "iwlwifi" in the config file.
