Subject: Wifi driver ipw3945 disappear connecting with access point

Hi, how does the pathes for driver looks like? My bug is.

In my notebook asus, I use wifi card ipw3945 and I have installed driver version
ipw3945-linux-1.1.0, downloaded from intel home page. I use Fedora core 6 and I


have also installed ieee80211-1.2.15. I connect to acces point and when I begin
to downloading some file or sometimes my connection disapper and in a one/two
seccond I connected it again. Here is 3 iwconfig status before signal disapper


and after, the Invalid misc is increasing:
