[Bug 651008] Re: Regression in wireless performance under Maverick when on battery power (broadcom)

[Brett McLean]

I can confirm this behavior on the Dell Mini 10v (Dell Inspiron 1011).
Speeds are roughly 30 Mbits/s through iperf when plugged into power but
drop to approximately 3 Mbits/s when running on battery power.

lspci reveals my wireless card to be:
03:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4322 802.11a/b/g/n Wireless LAN Controller (rev 01)

I can verify that David Guest's suggestion of using

     sudo iwconfig eth1 power off

works to bring wireless networking back up to expected speeds.
