WiFi not working properly in Ubuntu 14.04 LTS on Macbook Pro
Clash Royale CLAN TAG#URR8PPP
I just installed Ubuntu 14.04 LTS on my Macbook Pro. Everything seems to work fine except the WiFi. The wireless connection is very slow and intermittent. Wired connection works like a charm however.
I tried the solution here but it didn't work: https://askubuntu.com/questions/272010/extremely-slow-and-or-unreliable-wifi-on-a-2009-macbook-pro-with-bcm4322
Could someone help me?
Thanks in advance,

I'm dealing with the same issue running Ubuntu 14.04 on a Macbook Pro retina. I'm getting download speeds of 3Mb/s when I'm in Ubuntu, but 50Mb/s when I switch to OS X.
Just tried:
sudo apt-get install firmware-b43-installer
And it doubled my download speed to 6Mb/s... It's not much, but after trying everything else it feels like progress.
