I've used WPA with my 3945 card (in a ThinkPad Z61t) on both Fedora 7 w/ ipw3945 and Fedora 8 w/ iwl3945. So, it can work. On F7, I did the whole config manually (I don't use any DE, so I tend to have to do things this way) -- including editing /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-eth1 to have the correct ESSID and editing /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_wupplicant.conf with my PSK. I'm *guessing* that would work for you. I don't know how to get it working with NM -- sorry. -- Joshua Baker-LePain QB3 Shared Cluster Sysadmin UCSF
