First off, I have never used Gentoo so take the following with that in mind.
Take a look ath this doc -
http://frealek.dotnode.com/blog/view/177
This is a doc on setting up an Intel 2100 3b wifi card but if you pay attention to step 6 it has some of the commands that I belive are not distro specific and that you are looking for.
If they don't seem to work for you I would do some googleing on "wireless tools for gentoo" or something like that.
