I have recently updated to Intrepid to check another bug (#182931) and can confirm that I still have the problem with my 4965. Just today I have had the problem twice in about two (now tree) or tree hours, normally a reboot brings the network card running again, but I have also figured out that if I deactivate the wireless (Fn+F5) and activates it again, and remove some of the iwl* modules I have (iwl3945, iwlang and iwlcore) and add them back, with modprobe, I can sometimes get it up and running again (maybe sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart is needed, but I am not sure).

How come I suddenly do not have a iwl4965 module any more? I used to have one in 7.04

Hope this could be of some help.

PS. My in 7.04 I had problem with connection speed, this seems to be fixed now :-)
