Hello Friends

After updating the kernel last night my Network controller: Intel
Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection (rev 02) has
ceased working. I can send this mail with a reboot by
2.6.25.11-60.fc8, after a whole frustrating day. Though all this time
'iwconfig' or 'iwlist scan' are giving expected results all through.
But, finally, 'ifup wlan0' or 'service network restart' are not
working, the output being something like this after a very long time:

<<
[root at dia ~]# service network restart
Shutting down loopback interface:                          [  OK  ]
Bringing up loopback interface:                            [  OK  ]
Bringing up interface wlan0:  Error for wireless request "Set Mode" (8B06) :
    SET failed on device wlan0 ; Invalid argument.

(My wireless device is wlan0, and it is connected to a Siemens SL2_141
router with dhcp.)

Any help or information from anyone?
