I have the Intel Pro/Wireless 2100 3B aka "Centrino" card as well. NS 0.4 works with it, but i have the same problems. The card doesn't seem to refresh at realtime, so I while i drive, it still says it's getting signal from a block away.

I noticed that Windows XP's WZC also shows the same symptom while I was installing a new AP in the house. After I changed the SSID of the new AP from the default to something else, the WZC for the Intel card didn't update. I had to manually go into the WZC config page and click the Refresh button.

It seems to me it's a driver/hardware issue. It never bugged me since I use my Orinoco cards when i drive.
