Bug Description
After upgrading to 2.6.31-17, WLAN connections via the iwlagn chipset/driver don't work anymore. The wlan card is still detected, but no APs are detected anymore.
It's not a coincidental hardware problem, because it still works when booting into Windows. Trying to boot into 2.6.31-16 from the grub menu still doesn't restore the functionality though.

I am seeing exactly the same problem. I have an Intel 5300 AGN wireless card.
