I found a guide here on the forums to get my wireless card working on my laptop. It's worked pretty well so far. Just follow the instructions in the posting, and you shouldn't have to manually set up your card any more. The guide is at:
https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=122435&highlight=wireless+networking+script

Hope this helps.

PS - quick search is your friend on the forums... I looked this up via 'wireless networking script'.
