Those are the standard lines for removing and inserting a module, but it still 
doesn't explain why your connection is dropping.

Some modules have debugging options that can be turned on when the
module is inserted. You can list them with:

modinfo ipw2200

and apply them with:

modprobe ipw2200 debug=1

[thats just an example, i don't know if that particular module has such
an option, and I don't have an example card to test it on]

dmesg or your kernel syslog should then have some more info.
