I have a Thinkpad X40 and notice the same thing. I've temporarily
resolved the problem by editing my crontab to do an "ifconfig iwi0 up"
every minute, because - for some reason - up'ing the iwi0 interface
fixes the problem.
This is obviously not the best solution, but I haven't had time to dig
around and figure out what is actually going wrong with the card.
YMMV, of course.

Hi,

Apologies if it turns up again)
I have a thinkpad r50e with an intel wifi card. I frequently get "iwi0:
device timeout". The card does not work after this message has been
displayed. You can re-initialize it (/etc/netstart) and sometimes it
will start working again.
Any ideas why this is? It doesnt stop me working, its just a pain.
dmesg attached. (No, not GENERIC... RaidFrame)
Thanks
