I can't find Dynamode on http://linux-wless.passys.nl/ What's the lspci -n output for it? (Compare with lspci to make sure you've got the right device.) Then feed it to http://kmuto.jp/debian/hcl/ to see if it says useful things. Can it see the AP with iwlist <devicename> scan # and do the results look sane? I've one wireless device which seems to get confused and start thinking 00:00:00:00... is its access point, which breaks stuff (ugly solution: power cycle the PCMCIA slot...). If you're using WPA, is wpa_supplicant running and configured correctly? wpa_supplicant seems not to log, but the wpa_cli will give you a command line that lets you change the debugging level and see what it's doing. It's possible that Ubuntu uses waproamd or something clever like that, but hopefully the above will give you enough to find better hints. As ever, let us know how you get on. Under Windows, things seem even worse, as I didn't find the debug output anywhere.
