My card correctly connects to the AP, but it is *really* slow (1 Mbps).
I started having speed issues since I updated from Feisty, that is since Ubuntu started using b43legacy on my card, instead of the old (but fast, for me) bcm43xx driver.
It's not clear to me if the fix proposed by Larry (hacking the SPROM) could also solve my speed problem.
My SPROM code also seems quite different from the others posted here so far, so I'm confused.
Thanks in advance!
These are some informations about my card:
