Hello!

Since last week, my Intel Pro/Wireless 3945ABG with driver ipw3945 crashes many times and force me to reboot system for 'unlock' the device. I connect it and uses normally, but after 10 minutes or less, the connection going down and device 'stuck/block'. I try to turn off, but wireless led don't turn off and therefore I must to reboot and connect again.

Here, some info from my notebook:

$lspci

Network Controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection (rev 02)

$ uname -a

Linux Selene 2.6.25-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Mon Jul 14 14:56:27 UTC 2008 x86_64 Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU T7100 @ 1.80Ghz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux

$ lsmod

iwl3945         96500  0

Thanks!

hlegius,
Please read this post: http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php? … 99#p403099 I believe it will solve your problem.

peart, Thanks!

It was only a stupid conflict, at all. iwl3945 and ipw3945 are not good friends =~~

Thank you again!

Ooops! The same problem persists !

And now, only ipw3945 is running... It's very strange it

Try using iwl3945 instead. Here, I have got the same wireless card and I'm using the iwl3945 module.
