I have a T60p (2623-DDU) with an Intel ipw3945 wireless card running SuSE
Linux 10.1. This had been working just fine with my 802.11b access point.
Well, I decided to upgrade my access point to a 802.11a/b/g. I got that all
set up and it went great - I could connect to the g or a. However the access
point did not work out so I went back to my old access point (802.11b). Now
I cannot get a good signal with 802.11b. I usually get a signal to noise
ratio of 1 (all noise). I have since purchased another access point (a/b/g).
I can connect to the "a" just fine but I cannot connect to the "b" or "g" at
all. Same issue, signal to noise ratio = 1.

Has anyone experienced this issue? Is something that has to be configured on
the card to accept 802.11b/g? I've set just about every configure option
using iwconfig and iwpriv.

BTW all of the ap's in my area show a high noise ratio (using iwlist eth1
scan).   My wife's A31p 802.11b can connect just fine to the ap's.

Thanks,
Joe
