I can't connect to my open AP from my Thinkpad X60 with Intel ipw3945. I also see that toggling the wifi kill switch makes things work.
I ran a packet capture and I only see ICMPv6 messages. After I toggle the kill switch, IPv4 DHCP is performed. I've attached part of the capture below. Frame 5 is where DHCP starts after I toggle the wifi kill switch.
