Just wanted to check in with some new info.  I'd read some indications
online that this isn't universal with all Intel wi-fi chipsets.

I'd gotten around this bug with these directions off Ubuntu forums:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

To disable 802.11n on this card create /edit your
/etc/modprobe.d/options.conf file like this.

gksu gedit /etc/modprobe.d/options.conf

And add the following to it:

options iwl4965 11n_disable=1

proof read then save and exit.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So a few weeks ago I replaced our old Linksys WRT54G with a Netgear
WNDR3800.  Then I went into the modprobe.d/options.conf file and placed
## in front of that line of code.  That tells the OS to ignore the line,
right?

Rebooted, and the Acer 5920 Intel 4965 wi-fi chipset seems to be working
fine.  If my experience is any indication, then it appears to be a
problem that affects some users with some routers.
