I have a very similar problem, but I'm using the intel iwl3945 drivers. So, maybe it isn't a driver issue? I also don't remember having this problem in Hardy. Of note is that the problem occurs with extreme regularity - about every 2 minutes it roams, and reconnects 6 seconds later.

I'm running latest Intrepid, with backports and proposed enabled.
I'm attaching my syslog, but here's a snapshot of the relevant portion:

This is pretty frustrating when you're trying to work in an ssh terminal....
