Well I can attest that the wep will work with this card...I have it working.

What versions of net-wireless/ipw3945, net-wireless/ipw3945-ucode,
net-wireless/ipw3945d, and net-wireless/ieee80211 do you have
installed?  In other words, what is the output of:

emerge -pv net-wireless/ipw3945 net-wireless/ipw3945-ucode \
    net-wireless/ipw3945d net-wireless/ieee80211

And I suppose the outputs of "iwconfig -v" and "iwconfig" could help too.
