Ok in previous versions of Ubuntu, loading backport generic/wireless modules fixed the lag issue with this card. (ie i ping my router there are times when for 5-15 pings in a row MS will jump 50-500 from .8-2.1).

However, there is no generic that I can find for Maverick, and I installed the backport for wireless, but still experience 2-5 pings in a row 30-100. Somewhat better, but not like it was fixed before.

Any ideas?

EDIT: OK I did use WICD with those in previous versions. Will install WICD tonite and let you know results.
