I tried their mailing list, with no response. <br><br>$ is not in my config file. In the latest of many oddities, when I use iwconfig to set the key it doesnt associate. However once the key is set if I run wpa_supplicant it worked. I dont know if it will be consistant or not, but for right now at least its a workaround.

I think I actually had the same problem with WEP association (it was a<br>while ago and then I finally gave up). Have you tried associating with<br>wireless-tools? For being such a new and supposed "well-supported" card,
<br>the 3945 is unreliable as hell in my experience (perhaps the driver is<br>still stabilizing). Anyways, I'd try asking on the ipw3945 mailing list.<br>They seem to be pretty good about responding to questions. Good luck,
