Some optimism again!

The dropouts in this cards case seems to depend just on the fact that I was in a place with known bad contact. Now in a place with known good contact there is no dropout. Though it seems like xwlan 2.13 overestimates signalstrenght with this card and reports higher strenght then there is - the reason why I thought it was dropouts.

With xwlan 3.x on the other hand the strenght showed very low in a known good area - and also worked as low - easily loosing connection.

Writing this now connected 20 minutes without problems.

 Now problems with intel3945 abg solved! I made a reg-dump from winXP and transfered corresponding values to the genmac regfile. Now xwlan 3.10 works as expected and give me connection values that is realistic. xwlan 2.13 on the other hand still give to high values. If someone else have use of the regfile I exchanged against the one delivered with genmac I will upload it here. Observe that the ssid-value is my own - I really don't know if it matters whats there as xwlan take care of this. I don't know either wich value of those I changed - which was quite a few - are really relevant. Any way now everything works spendid!
