Great. I tried a file transfer and noticed that was a little pokey too. But it's great to have wifi back.
The biggest problems I have with iwlwifi:- it doesn't associate as 11g when connecting to an 11g network, instead it continues to associate as 11b (still true on Linville #7 kernels)
- it will drop dead when there are many packets small in flight, something is broken with the transmit queue stopping and starting. I can do normal browsing and bulk http downloads for example just fine, but a git pull using git:// will kill the device (no more traffic) until the driver is removed and re-inserted.
I posted on the iw3945 list and made a bug on the iwlwifi bugzilla and made available a usermode app that will provoke the failure but didn't hear anything since a month
