I managed to fix this problem by changing the security from WEP to WPA

** Description changed:

  When trying to connect wirelessly, I constantly get asked to provide my
  wireless key, but it ends up failing and asking me over and over again
  as it gets stuck in an endless loop. This has been happening to quite a
  few people. I am using Ubuntu 9.10 and once I finish doing a actual
  install on my machine, I will upload my dmesg and syslog files. If you
  need any more information just ask and I will try to provide you with it
  in hopes of getting this fixed. Also, here is a link to the thread for
  which this originated

+ EDIT: I managed to fix this by using WPA instead of WEP, but if I did
+ not change that setting on my network, this issue still is valid.
