Ok after much experimentation - I now have the magic recipe to
connect which seems to work.
(i) Set up appropriate configs (ie populate
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg*
(ii) ifup wlan0 ; ifdown wlan0
(iii) modprobe -r iwl4965
(iv) turn radio off with hardware switch
(v) turn on radio
(vi) iwconfig wlan0 channel 11
Adjust to channle of close AP
(vii) iwlist wlan0 scan
This will fail - repeat - it may still not see the AP that is
close - repeat until you see the AP picked up in the scan.
If you cannot see the AP - go back to (iii)
(viii) killall dhclient
(ix) ifup wlan0
(x) iwconfig wlan0
to confirm it has the correct AP
10 easy steps ... and it works ... yay!
good luck.
(There may be a smaller set but this does work)
