Hi Christopher Few hours later the BIOS version was available again and so I updated the BIOS the next day. The behavior seems a bit different now - although I can't tell if it's really because of the BIOS update or Ubuntu updates: Now I get disconnects while the wireless icon still tells me I'm connected, I have to manually reconnect to the WiFi network, sometimes I have to disable and enable radio as no networks are listed. I have yet not encountered any slowness while browsing.
