Hi
Im running ubuntu 8.10 on a hp compaq 8510w laptop with a Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 4965 AG or AGN [Kedron] Network Connection (rev 61) wlan controller inside. To use this card I updated the iwlagn drivers with the ones from wireless.kernel.org (latest version running now (master-2008-12-10)). I did this to fix some problems with the drivers that came with intrepid. Those were fixed, but now I suddenly have these new ones and I just can't find much on google so I am stuck.
The problem: When downloading using my wlan (I haven't got a cable up here so can't test it sadly) at first everything runs fine. I get download speeds of 1,2 MB/s which is normal (downloading bin file from speedtest.bbned.com). But the speed is just counting down untill it reaches around 80 KB/s.
dmesg gives a lot of this:

Let me explain a bit, 192.168.1.100 is a server which I have running, which I have some problems connecting to via smb (lead maybe?) and 192.168.1.6 is this laptop with the problem
What I found on google is that there might be a link with the wlan being a hidden network (which is true in my case). I will try and set it to unhidden in a moment, although this wouldn't be a permanent fix for me because I just want it to be hidden.
Anyone got any ideas/need more info?
Thanks in advance
Bram
