FYI I'm running pre-hardy, updated as of 20080422, on a Lenovo Thinkpad T60p:
26d10014b09439dc5a8573c2a6f85b0a /lib/firmware/2.6.24-16-generic/iwlwifi-3945-1.ucode
26d10014b09439dc5a8573c2a6f85b0a /lib/firmware/2.6.24-16-generic/iwlwifi-3945.ucode
which match iwlwifi-3945-ucode-2.14.1.5.tgz from http://www.intellinuxwireless.org/iwlwifi/downloads, and I'm still seeing
[ 2218.395642] wlan0: No ProbeResp from current AP 00:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx - assume out of range

which persist until I unload and reload the module. (I also have the problem that occasionally the reload entirely hangs the laptop, leaving just a blinking caps-lock light as an indication...) I do run across suspend and restore cycles, and move among a number of wireless domains (I always just force-reload the module after restoring from suspend; it sometimes doesn't need it, but the force reload is always faster :-)

Only seems to happen with WPA; when I'm using WPA I'm also using 802.11a;
