Well - perhaps we are talking about two different problems, but I am not
using WPA at all, so there is clearly a problem here that is independent
of WPA.  This occurs in 11b mode (or perhaps against 11b-only access
points?), and the symptoms are lots of dropped packets (e.g. reported by
'ping', poor transfer rates, broken/locked up connections) labelled as
"RX dropped" by ifconfig, and "Invalid misc" by iwconfig.  Signal and
Noise reported by iwconfig are always within 1dB of each other, but Link
quality is reported as okay (e.g. 67/100), so I'm not sure if that is a
problem or not.

Anyway I "solved it" by replacing my 11b AP with a new 11n one - which
so far seems to work great.  Another solution might be ndis-wrapper and
the Windows 3945-driver -- it seems to work in that other OS against the
same AP.  Anyone care to try?
