he ok.

The problem is that when connecting to a dynamic wep network which
uses multiple keys iwl3945 fails to get a dhcp lease. (See
http://marc.info/?l=linux-wireless&m=120699235803881&w=2)
Volker had the same problem with iwl4965.  But when turning off
hwcrypto and therefore use the mac80211 code it works for him.
iwl3945 does not use hwcrypto by default (and when I enable it it does
not work either) but fails. Both should be using the same code
(mac80211) but one driver works and the other doesn't which is odd.
