Slow WiFi since updating to 18.04

Solution 1:

I just fixed this on ubuntu 18.04 - turns out there is some kind of issue with 802.11n and iwlwifi Intel chips. The solution is to turn it off.
Check if it works first with:

sudo modprobe -r iwlwifi

sudo modprobe iwlwifi 11n_disable=1

Make it permanent with this command:

echo "options iwlwifi 11n_disable=1" | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/iwlwifi.conf

I did this and my wifi speeds instantly went back to normal.
