I'm afraid this will not work with current (hackish ;-))
version of ipw3945 .. while patching the driver to contain
a built-in ieee80211 stack I did not patched the WEP/TKIP/CCMP
and  part and the driver calls external (non-compatible)
modules instead of using built-in code ..

I'll try to see that for next release.
