Solution in #370 seems to work for me. This is the first fix after YEARS of slow linux wifi (forcing me back to windows)!! And it was so simple....
In the past I was able to recover high speed by disabling and enabling the wifi interface. However, after some minutes it still became slow again.

Maybe one comment for those who cannot find /etc/modprobe.d/iwl3945.conf. It might not be there so simply create it.

Thank you very much
