    The 3945ABG SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    So far I have been disconnected where things just time out (still says I am connected), and I need to cycle the wireless card to get it going again. This is insane. Are there any beta drivers that might fix this so I can take advantage of SSH in my station wagon?

    I suppose you upgraded different versions of the firmware for the router, and try the drivers for the card

    Firmware on the router has been constant through a few laptops without issues. I JUST upgraded the intel drivers a bit ago, and going to see how those act.

    My roomate was having this same problem. I updated the drivers and am hoping it works better for her. At least after reading this and the recommended linked posts, I know her main problem was with her 2200 adapter and not the router...
