Thanks, Akemi.

I am forwarding the email to my colleague, August Piazza.  He has been trying to help me with this issue for two days, and can provide more information about the computer.

August, could you please try the command and provide the output to Akemi?

You need to provide more info than saying "couldn't make it work" .

My guess is that you'd need the iwl3945 module. Is this loaded?

/sbin/lsmod | grep iwl

Are you using NetworkManager and is it configured correctly?
