Slowly losing WIFI speed | Lenovo U410 14.04 | Intel 7260 topic






Hi,

I have a Lenovo U410 (i7, 8GB, etc.) with an Intel Corporation Wireless 7260 and i'm using Ubuntu 14 for about 7 months now.

All working great but since 2 weeks i am losing network speed when i use my WIFI connection. The longer i work with wifi, the slower it gets. After 45-50 minutes i have to reboot or use the UTP cable to continue working. onnected with UTP (RTL8101E/RTL8102E PCI Express) there are no problems, all perfect.

I have a second partition with Windows on it, and there no problems when i use Windows. High speed all the time so it seems a Ubuntu problem ... but what?

Any help would be appreciated!

troubles with speed limit settings on FatRat topic






I recently installed FatRat from the Ubuntu 12.04 LTS software center, and I am having problems with it ignoring my attempts to throttle the download speeds. Every time I start a new download, a small window appears for me to paste in a source URL, and to set speed limits, and the limits are ignored. I can create a queue, with a name, and set speed limits there, as part of the queue properties, but that still guarantees nothing. If I set a queue speed limit, then add a URL to download, and also set a speed limit in the same popup window the URL gets pasted into, then and only then do I see the download being throttled down. Is that the way it is supposed to work?
