I have a co-worker with an IPW3945 in his ThinkPad and a couple of

reported that they can not use NetworkManager with it. Apparently,
it's a well known problem that NetworkManager doesn't play (at all?)
nicely with IPW3945 cards using either the older daemon or the newer
drivers.
I'm glad I didn't know that before I started using NM with the ipw3945
driver. :)
It's been working well for me since FC5. In the little testing I've
done with F7, it still works (the ipw3945 that is).
I have not had any luck with the newer iwl3945 driver, though I
haven't tested anything newer than 2.6.21-1.3167.fc7.
FWIW, my AP is a Linksys WRT54GX2 with firmware 1.01.14, using WPA2.
