Do you use udev? I know that there are some timing-problems with udev 
and firmware-loading with the new ipw2100-1.0.x-drivers.

You can find a bug-report about this at the gentoo-bugzilla [1], which 
isn't exactly the appropriate for you because it is about gentoo, but 
maybe related to your problem.

Have a look in your dmesg-output, it should tell something about 
firmware could not be loaded.

I wasn't able to solve this problem. So I stepped back to ipw2100-0.56.

Good luck
Jan
