When I switched to iwl3945 I had problems with a very unstable connection (just stable enough to allow wpa_supplicant to recover), decreasing effective bandwidth a lot. Enabling every suboption except of debugging for "Intel Wireless WiFi Link Drivers" in the kernel resolved it. Does it work with kernel 2.6.24? Maybe you could try wpa_supplicant with debugging enabled? wpa_supplicant -i wlan0 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf -d or even wpa_supplicant -i wlan0 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf -dd
