"wep_key0=<I'm not showing that!>"

its wep, therefore obsolete. if anyone lives near you and wants to know your key, they will take the 10 minutes or less that it takes to crack any wep key. consider wpa

Make sure you do ifdown usb0 before ifup eth0

Then if dhcp does not get a lease first time through (which for me is about 50/50)
then you can do this from the console which always gets the lease for me.

 > udhcpc eth0

After that wifi should work.

While udhcpc is sending discovers I can see my router is leasing my neo a 
valid ip for 60 seconds each "sending discover".

Sometimes, in very rare cases I can get a decent lease. But that is not 
reproducible. I think it's happened three times to me the last three days.

Anyone knows how I could get an IP reliably?

well, i did what

Ok that worked, although I have some routing issues now. The manual method
did not work though.

Although it says encryption key off, but I presume wpa_supplicant is
handling that.

           inet addr:192.168.1.70  Bcast:192.168.1.255  Mask:255.255.255.0

           RX bytes:725595 (708.5 KiB)  TX bytes:37892 (37.0 KiB)


So its connected to my access point, and I turned off eth0, but I cannot
ping the wireless, I'll work on that it may be routing or it may be
encryption.

Thanks all.
