The Wi-Fi on this phone is the best I've used. Case in point.
I do regular backups on my phone. I was able to transfer 7+GB via Wi-Fi FTP on my Galaxy Nexus at speeds of 3Mbps upload, whereas with my old HTC Inspire 4G, I used to get a pathetic 500kpbs upload. If you are having these many problems, I'd recommend a better ROM, kernel, or radio.
Back on topic, just got off the phone with Google support. The rep I spoke to said he was not aware of these issues, but then I told him to Google it.
He said he saw all the reports, and that he would report to his superiors.
I emailed a few tech news outlets (Engadget, Neowin, XDA), so I hope this gets some traction.1
Although this is true, it's at best a workaround and not a solution. Turning off GLS breaks some app's ability to update as they rely on cell tower triangulation rather than GPS.
