I have what looks to be the same problem; only half the normal throughput on wireless (100Kb/s versus 200Kb/s) even when only 30 cm from the wireless router dropping to 16Kb/s when a few meters away. Using a wired connection restores performance as does rebooting with an earlier Kernel. I have tried booting the same laptop with a replacement harddrive containing Windows XP and performance is fine even 10m away.
