Hi, just confirming -- it's an Intel "Centrino Wireless-N 2230" wifi card http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/wireless-products/centrino-wireless-n... *appears* to be supporting fine on kernel 3.08 and 3.11, but has terribly crippled performance. Have tested the various suggested module parameters to no avail (including disabling N entirely and using 802.11g); also ensured I was using the latest firmware blob. -T On 23 December 2013 16:32, Bianca Gibson <bianca.rachel.gibson@gmail.com> wrote:
Thanks Toby. Could you please check the specific card? I don't think discrete graphics would be worthwhile for him anyway, so I doubt the problem with switching is relevant. He doesn't intend to be gaming or doing any other 3D stuff.
Cheers, Bianca
