Eric Appleman (erappleman) wrote : iwl3945 does pick up weaker signals like ndiswrapper does

I have found that iwl3945 will not offer weak signals for connection whereas ndiswrapper with the appropriate 3945ABG driver will offer signals as weak as 1% in Wicd and Network Manager.

I figure that this shouldn't be a proper behavior since the signals that ndiswrapper picks up are already 10% weaker than those of iwl3945.
