I don't understand why "disable_hw_scan=1" works for you. Can you also
attach the dmesg for it?
How does the hardware scan differ from what mac80211 does when
scanning? I still see a lot of mysterious iwlwifi (especially iwl3945)
problems in Fedora that seem to disappear with disable_hw_scan=1.
Honestly I'm tempted to change it to "enable_hw_scan" instead...

It has been a while since I tested without "disable_hw_scan=1" - my 3945 works
every time with it - last time I tested without it was very hit or miss.
Sometimes taking over 10 minutes to get associated, sometimes never and this
was with me right next to the WAP.
I think the latest in the fedora kernel I am using is 1.26kds as I recall.
