At this point, I suspect that it is ether the essid, or that you are using encription, and you don't have the correct key. (It could also be a problem where firmware needs to be uploaded to the device, but that should have generated an error message in the logs.)
If it works ok in Windows, then copy down the ESSID and KEY that works in Windows, so you can configure Linux the same way. Mikkel -- Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons, for thou art crunchy and taste good with Ketchup!
