I think something isn't turned on. This isn't much help, but when I
look at mine with iwconfig I see the "Link Quality Signal level Noise
level" line with real data in it not all 0. Like below: Also note
"Mode Managed" which I think is the one to use for connecting a mobile
system to an access point.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] local]$ /sbin/iwconfig wlan0
wlan0 IEEE 802.11 ESSID:"lowix.net"
Mode:Managed Frequency:2.412 GHz Access Point: 00:14:6C:3B:9C:F2
Bit Rate=54 Mb/s Tx-Power=27 dBm

Link Quality=81/100 Signal level:-49 dBm Noise level=-63 dBm
