For none Prism2-based cards:

Just edit the file /etc/pcmcia/wireless.opts or run
# iwconfig <device> ESSID <ESSID>
# iwconfig <device> key off (or on)
# iwconfig <device> rate 11M

I discovered that by default the driver will set your hostname as nick. You can change this by the command
# iwconfig <device> nick <new-nick>
