Are you using the wvlan_cs driver? Last I knew, it doesn't support
encryption with cards based on the PrismII chipset (such as Linksys and
your D-Link). It's not really a big deal since it's been well documented
lately that the WEP encryption is pretty much useless. You could use
something like FreeS/WAN (IPSec) for security between your machines (and
you'll probably get better performance out the the card too since WEP
tends to slow things down).
