If you want an easy way of configuring wirless without GUI use wicd
and the wicd curses client(enabled via USE flag), NetworkManager is
simpler to use with a GUI, the CLI client is not so easy to use, but
if you want to, make sure none of the GUI related use flags are set
e.g. gtk qt X emerge it, and then read and search info(man, google)
about nmcli.
