Fwd: Delivery Status Notification (Failure)

Hi,

I am looking for the support with below mentioned problem. I have a Intel
Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG [Golan] Network Connection (rev 02) wifi
card instaled. From the Intel technical support I received the information,
that this card is dual band and supports 5GHz standard. I cannot see this
network, but only 2,4GHz one. I have Ubuntu 12.04 instaled and tried to
update given below drivers. I am afraid I need a help with this process.
Would you be so kind and give me step by step manual, how to update the
intel drivers (together with needed commands, if possible)?

Thank you in advance.

Hi,

So I have been trying to reach out in aim to get this driver fixed as
its regressed now to a total non working state.

The card can see access points, but thats about as good as it gets as
trying to connect to any networks ( either 2.4 ot 5 Ghz ) results in
the following,

  wlp3s0: CTRL-EVENT-SCAN-FAILED ret=-22 retry=1

( alot of these ) which then resets connection status with a failed timeout.

I am currently running FedoraCore 30 with the 5.2.5-200 kernel updated
from 5.1.x yesterday. The firmware loaded is,

loaded firmware version 9.221.4.1 build 25532 op_mode iwldvm

Now with all that said, using a Linux Mint live boot from a usb device
yeilds the card working fine at both 2.4 and 5ghz speeds, it connects
within seconds. The kernal in this live boot is 4.15.x and uses the
same firmware build as my FC install.

I did see strange behavior with this card from around 4.18 to 20,
thinking the card might have developed a fault and obtained a new one.
This proved that this was not the case as I get the exact same
behavior from both cards.

Hope this information is helpful to solve quickly, please reach out
for more information if required

Thanks
Nige
