The latest version (as of Jan 7 '09) of iwl3945 from the compat-wireless project seems to fix this.
On another person's open wireless network:
Intrepid's version: up: 1.0 MBit/s, down: 3.7 MBit/s
compat-wireless version: up: 3.1 MBit/s, down: 2.7 MBit/s
Seems to be much better.
However, I couldn't test on my own wireless network because compat-wireless's iwl3945 simply wouldn't connect to my WPA2 network. I hope that'll be fixed so we can get some concrete results.
