I have the same computer (8.10 fresh install), and i might be affected by this bug.
@ ananthakumaran: Have you tried this workaround? http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/810#Only%20US%20wireless%20channels%20enabled%20by%20default%20on%20Intel%203945 Unfortunately the workaround does not work for me... Also, have a look at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/291685 and follow the instructions in comment #1 and attach to this bug.
