An rpm of the drivers is available from freshrpms.net, the dkms-ipw3945 package, which is the package I used. (Just as a note, if you have the dries repo enabled, disable the dries repo when installing this package or install the dkms package from Fedora Extras before installing the drivers. Otherwise, the dkms-ipw3945 package does not install correctly.) As for the IEEE 802.11 stack, I believe the stack is the standard IEEE 802.11 stack with the Fedora kernel. (Someone correct me if I'm wrong.)
