Hello, I have a strange problem with my wireless card. I'm using ipw3945-1.2.0, and it's unable to detect any network / access points. I'm doing iwlist eth1 scan and getting 'no scan results'; maybe I've missed something? Also, restarting is very strange - I have to modprobe -r ipw3945. Can someone help me?
