For me none of the other drivers are working, so I'm stuck with brcmsmac. Have been using it for hours now and suddenly I started getting very slow DL speeds (~70KB/s). On Ubuntu 14.04 LTS and 3.13.0-24-generic kernel. So, confirming the issue still persists for newer kernels.

If I disconnect the internet connection and re-connect, it is OK again, but only until it happens again, randomly. I have a Broadcom 4313 driver. This bug does not happen on previous distributions or on my windows partition. I also cannot install propriety drivers instead, because of another bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/jockey/+bug/819365 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/856314/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
