Your wireless card is an Intel 3945Bg isn't it?

Intel switch to a new driver for this card, which Ubuntu unfortunately adopted 
early on....

The only solution for now is to install the kernel from 9.04. People have 
reported that it fixes this problem, and doesn't create any other.I haven't 
tried it yet, I wanted to keep the latest one on to help diagnose/debug this 
problem, but neither Ubuntu nor Intel is even trying... so I will be be 
downgrading my kernel very soon.
