Problem with Internet speed in laptop in Linux Mint

[Renaton Patron]

Hi all, I have an update abut my problem.
I finally disabled IPv6 by adding "ipv6.disable=1" manually at startup.
The fix worked well but the problem persisted, so I started searching about
my wireless drivers and i found that there's a problem between my wireless
card and the default drivers in jaunty, so they recommended installing a
package called "linux-backports-modules-jaunty". I did that and worked very
well. I can connect at 10Mb from the laptop.

Thanks for your answers and time.
