Thanks a lot for your help,
If I do a 'iwlist s' the result is:
'eth1      No scan results'

dmesg says nothing special...

There is a News, if I try to start up the old 2.6.17-rc5 sometimes, when
I try to associate with my AP instead of: 'Access Point: Invalid',
iwconfig print the AP Mac address, and dmesg print this: 

Jul 24 16:12:45 localhost kernel: SoftMAC: Authentication timed out with
00:0e:8e:7a:7a:e5
Jul 24 16:21:31 localhost kernel: SoftMAC: Authentication response
received from 00:0e:8e:7a:7a:e5 but no queue item exists.
Jul 24 19:58:36 localhost kernel: SoftMAC: Open Authentication completed
with 00:0e:8e:7a:7a:e5

Look at the System time! 
In any case in iwconfig:
'Link Quality:0  Signal level:0  Noise level:0'

I hope this can help.

Best Regards

PAD
