You need to setup your /etc/conf.d/net and add a line for your wlan0 to get dhcp. Then copy the /etc/init.d/net.eth0 to net.wlan0 and add that to the right run level. Finally you edit the /etc/conf.d/wlan.conf and change the SSID_wlan0="your_ssid" and ENABLE_wlan0=y. Finally you copy the wlancfg-DEFAULT in the same directory to wlancfg-your_ssid (the one you added to the wlan.conf) and configure the dot11WEPDefaultKey0 - dot11WEPDefaultKey4 with your wep keys. I've attached my wlan.conf and wlancfg-rustedhalo as examples. Good luck.
