(Get the code!)
I enabled proposed repository and installed the new kernel:
$ uname -a
Linux maggie 2.6.38-9-generic #43-Ubuntu SMP Thu Apr 28 15:23:06 UTC 2011 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
The problem is not solved, although the situation has significantly improved in both speed and stability.
The issue, however, remains:
# Internet download speed is limited if compared to a wired connection. Response time is visually slower and downloads won't go faster than 600KB/s without hanging.
# the driver is not completely stable yet. Downloading big files, for instance a Ubuntu ISO using torrent, will hang the connection. In that case I have to disconnect and reconnect.
# the computer runs much hotter. A video call on Skype will make the internal temperature increase by 4-5 degrees if compared to the same call using a wire. My hardware encryption is ON.
