I hope this is what you need.
Recently, I did a reboot after I purged out bind9 (don't know if that
affects anything) but can not get the wireless card to work with WPA
Personal correctly again.
I am able to connect to my router with an unencrypted connection using
the following commands
Code:
sudo ifconfig wlan0 down
sudo dhclient -r wlan0
sudo ifconfig wlan0 up
sudo iwconfig wlan0 essid “matthewboh”
sudo iwconfig wlan0 mode Managed
sudo dhclient wlan0
Here are the results from the machine after a reboot

If I try to set any of the WPA values like sudo iwpriv wlan0 set
AuthMode=WPAPSK, it says
wlan0
No private ioctls.
Please let me know if you need other / different info and thanks!
