Comment 371 for bug 621265

I have a dell inspriron E1505 that uses intel 3945abg..I experienced this internet speed problem when I did clean install of Ubuntu 11.10..I tried a bunch of fixes around the community but nothing helped..I kind of gave up and accepted that I would have to wait for an official patch so that was that. Until I decided I wanted a lighter OS so I did a clean install of Lubuntu 11.10..anyhow, my internet speed is now back to what I paid for with no regression problems like before..

I'm extremely new to linux so I apologize if my assumption is wrong but..I thought since Lubuntu is basically Ubuntu with a different "wrapper"..a developer could look at the differences of the two OS and see what could be causing this bug..
