Hi there,

i am on Ubuntu lucid and a Thinkpad T61 with Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG [Golan] (via lspci).
Module is the iwl3945.
Access Point is an Linksys/Cisco WRT160Nv2 Router.

I solved the following problem
  [ 1860.200063] iwl3945 0000:03:00.0: Failed to get channel info for channel 140 [0]
 [ 1868.760025] iwl3945 0000:03:00.0: Failed to get channel info for channel 140 [0]
 [ 1886.540076] iwl3945 0000:03:00.0: Failed to get channel info for channel 100 [0]
 [...]
according to this thread: http://lists4.opensuse.org/opensuse-bugs/2010-08/msg00974.html

Therefore I added to "/etc/modprobe.d/options-iwl3945.conf":
  options iwl3945 disable_hw_scan=0

For testing purpose do
  rmmod -f iwl3945 && modprobe iwl3945 disable_hw_scan=0

I am happy now ;)
