I've had similar problem with Avaya Gold which is also Lucent-card.
I replaced my Prism2 card with a Lucent card yesterday just to test it on -CURRENT.
But when I put a Compaq WL110 card, shit started to work again.
I did not debug problems with the Avaya card. I will today. It's possible I've messed up my setup which i later corrected with the Compaq card.
Be sure you use the same wep key as the one you have on your server/gw. I.e when I just set my wep key nothing worked, but when I told ifconfig to use key number 3 (that's what's set up on my gw) things started to work again.
And I set up my IP manually. I will also check it dhclient can receive requests. 

Cheers
