Bug Description

This started as question #91598 and after a bit of hunting I found a reference to the iwlwifi driver for Intel pro 3945abg not supporting TKIP (or LEAP) authentication. As soon as I switched my wireless routers authentication method to AES I was able to connect.

I don't know if this is related to bug #291685

The previous ipw3945 driver for this hardware worked fine
