I have a Intel Corporation Centrino Wireless-N 1000 (8086:0084) in a Thinkpad x220. In 11.04, I had good performance once I added "options iwlagn 11n_disable=1". With 11.10 i'm using the same configuration. The connection is stable, but the performance is noticeably worse.

For example, I'm currently scping a file to another host on the network at 1.2MB/s. Trying to do anything else at the same time is pretty painful.
