Comment(by dcbw):

 David; no luck with up-to-date libertas-2.6 against either a WRT54G or a
 WRT54GC, both of which work just fine with the ipw2200.  Symptoms are the
 same; the driver will report an association, but DHCP will never complete
 successfully.

 I tried an unencrypted connection to the WRT54GC with libertas-2.6, and
 that actually worked like a charm.  I'm starting to suspect some command
 mis-ordering or race conditions here like back when WPA didn't work (which
 was a command sequence issue).  Since the association completes
 successfully, that indicates that the 8388 can exchange frames with the
 AP, but since no actual traffic appears to pass, that indicates that
 perhaps there's something amiss in the WEP key setting functions or
 sequence in the driver.

 I could try to git-bisect libertas-2.6 I guess...
