I recently installed Ubuntu on my MacBook and it's great. The only problem is the Internet speed... on Mac OS X it is much faster which doesn't surprise me because both have been optimized to run fast.

I was wondering if there was a driver, or similar, that would improve the speed for Ubuntu?

How do you evaluate this problem? Any iperf test or speed test? Which kind / brand / model of network adapter you have? – Pitto Jul 22 '11 at 12:49

Does your wireless get slower after resuming from suspend or on battery? If so, this information may help to disable the power saving features for your wireless adapter.
