RE: [ipw3945-devel] IWL3945 always reports noise levels of -127

When one of our devices cannot figure out what the actual noise level is, it reports -127.

Newer devices are better at old devices at figuring noise level. IIRC, 3945 cannot figure noise for CCK signals, and may not be possible with OFDM as well.
