Orinoco and WLAGS Hermes1 and Hermes2 has some "sensitivy" 
setting, from 1..3:

$ iwconfig eth1 sens 3

What exactly this does is a bit opaque and handled by the 
firmware.




Madwifi does roaming OK, here we have many iwpriv settings that 
can be used to fine-tune this:

$ iwpriv eth1 bgscan 0
$ pre-up iwpriv eth1 rssi11g 26
$ pre-up iwpriv eth1 rssi11b 26

But this isn't exactly the driver, but their own 802.11 
implementation.
