It seems as though I am able to install the modules via module-assistant

can not connect to the AP with this card. Any ideas or help is much
appreciated. Thanks.

Make sure the firmware-ipw3945 and ipw3945d packages are installed as well.
If you use GNOME then install network-manager-gnome. This is the easiest way
to connect and should work. There is a document on the Ubuntu wiki (!) that
works in Debian as well:

I would use WPA if I were you, WEP is broken and easily cracked. Hope this
helps,

I was able to get it working but only after enabling SSID broadcasting
on the AP. This is odd but it works. I wonder why this is?
