Paul, Try resetting the DSL modem, and see if the Pismo picks it up then. It does the trick when everything else fails, especially in a case like this --because theoretically your setup should work.
You could also try switching to WEP to test the card --there is always the possibility that the card is defective. Hope it helps!
