I suspect a bit of both. The iwlwifi driver still feels unstable.
After I sent this message off I DID sucessfully connect to my 802.11g
network, but I still can't seem to connect to the 802.11a at all.
(Keep in mind that it's the same BSSID for both networks). I was
connected for a while, but then it just stopped sending packets and
I couldn't reconnect again.
I'm certainly happy to help in whatever debugging you'd like me to
do. Unfortunately I dont think this new laptop is stable enough for
me to take it with me to California next week, so I'll stil with my
old one. But when I get back I'll certainly be happy to help debug
in any way I can.
I'd like to see Fedora 7 + NM + iwlwifi solidify quickly. :) I got
the 3945 specifically on the theory that it would be more stable
than an Atheros card. I hope I wasn't mistaken!
