Description water 2011-04-04 16:44:58 UTC 
My wireless card is Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 5100 AGN [Shiloh] Network Connection .

After I update to gentoo-sources 2.6.38-r1, I can not find 'Intel Wireless WiFi 5000AGN' in 'make menuconfig'。
I choose 'Intel Wireless-N/Advanced-N/Ultimate-N WiFi Link' in kernel config ，but I can not connect using my wireless card . Its help file(Shift /) says it support 5100AGN .
At that time my iwl5000-ucode's version is 8.24.2.12 .
After I update net-wireless/iwl5000-ucode to 8.83.5.1 , I still can not connect wifi.
How to do with it? 
Thanks a lot!

Reproducible: Always
