My apologies, but suggesting to use WICD isn't helping fixing any issues. Furthermore, it's doubtful it really fixes the issues by itself, let alone without introducing other issues (such as whether applications will notice they are online in this case).
Please, test with the mainline kernel as asked by Joseph Salisbury in comment #58.
There's already been some amount of testing with the mainline kernel with good success (e.g. the connection is stable even when N isn't disabled). Reported bit rate by the driver is obviously not something that should be taken at face value since it changes constantly and is probably not all that accurate.
Finally, since there has been testing with good results with a newer kernel, and similar good results on Fedora (which also uses NetworkManager), I think there is sufficient proof that this isn't an issue in NM; so I'll close the NM task as Invalid.
@oledoe: please file a separate bug report for your issue. This bug report is specifically for Intel devices; as opposed to the Broadcom device you are using. You can use the "ubuntu-bug linux" command to help with filing a new bug report.
