Indeed, the performance with current iwl3945 is unsatisfactory to say
the least. I've filed a bug report here:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=753299 as the link
throughput was stuck at 100kBps. Apparently enabling hardware scanning
helps. However, once enabled, there will be occasional lockups due to
scanning, which can be prevented by hardcoding AP SSID in the wireless
settings.  So yeah, more and more things start to suck over time (not
mentioning terrible 2D graphics performance, deteriorating with each
release since KMS/Gallium inception).
