First, use net-setup; not any networkmanagers...How about exact error message. Pertinent dmesg output (/var/log/dmesg); lspci output; ifconfig, iwconfig.
Looks like others have gotten it working in these fourms. search for "3945abg"

ipw3945 works I just right click knetworkmanager select the network and bam it works.

Just make sure the wifi light on the laptop is on otherwise restart into windows and or fn+f2 could also switch it on.l

fn is next to windows button left bottom blue letters.
