I have a ipw3945 = closest I have to yours and 3.4f now running.
E1705 / 9400 , 7950gtx + extra 7800gtx dell 1390 laying around.
Look at knetwork the 2nd option instead of the first could be that it uses different source code for both or something and is causing the issues. No Idea. I presume you checked the signal quality or if the mac address is blocked or not in the router.
The intel wifi cards is sensitive to bad signal quality or more so than the broadcom bcm43xx types = weaker signal and more failed connections. Ebay has the dell 1390 for $13.50 + shipping or there about and is worth the upgrade if you need to.
Also check one of the dhcp versions gave us hell a few months ago. Think it was 3.0.8 not sure.

See if you can get yours to this as my ipw3945 works fine maybe your ipw2200 could as well by cloning it to this.
Hope this helps.
