At this stage, I would run wicd-curses (not as root) and type P. I would make sure the Wireless and Wired Interfaces were correctly named wlan0 and eth0, set automatic reconnection and any other options I wanted, save that, scan for APs with Fn5, select one and press -> to configure it. I would remove the ethernet cable because I have that set to take priority. After saving the configuration, I'd press Return and hope to have a wireless connection come up. It's too long since I bothered to configure all this through /etc/network/interfaces, which reminds me: for wicd to manage the network, you should comment all but auto lo iface lo inet loopback in that file.
