No, that's why they are called "Softmac" FW. Now the whole encryption 
(WEP/WPA/RSN with RC4, TKIP and CCMP) is done in software by your 
host CPU and not by the card... 

But please stick with the 2.7.0.0 FW, the all drivers are written for/from ;) it.

Oh, and if you're interested in the FW, you should take a look @ the freemac project. 
AFAIK, it doesn't work yet, but it contains some "helpful" hints about these devices.
