Another thread in the tonne I searched up and completely failed to find a solution to my problem in. Wish I could remember the ancient email I signed up for the forums ages ago with too =[
Anyways... Problem: All activity drops in mere seconds upon first trying to connect to any site...
I have the driver installed fine, along with wicd which has control of my wlan0 like it should, the scan of SSIDs turns up fine, I can connect to my network fine too.
I can get an IP addy just fine, I can ping external IPs endlessly.
I can resolve IPs it seems, I tried pacman with wget to make sure my IPs were being resolved properly, it always connects and gets the first few tarballs, then on one of them the speed (as reported by wget) drops from full speed to 0 over a few seconds, and it never picks up again, and fails to retrieve any more files.
http sites are the same, it connects for a second, then is endlessly waiting.
Would love to get this working, and I should point out I have no problems at all with my ethernet connection.
Any ideas guys?

i use the same driver as you guys for my
Intel Corporation Wireless WiFi Link 5100and "network manager" and have no problem whatsoever.
To get my wifi working i had to copy the
iwlwifi-4965-2.ucodefile into "/lib/firmware".
Try doing the same, might work

Confirmed.
Same problem occured to me since the last kernel update.
Downgrading to kernel26 2.6.32.9-1 fixed it.

Kernel downgrade worked for me too, thanks guys. But this isn't solved until they fix it! =X

I have this problem only on unencrypted access points, very odd.
