Hopefully logs will help you to understand why it cannot be associated to
the AP.
Also, compare both "/var/log/syslog" files from the computer where it
works and from the one that fails.

If you followed the steps given at the wiki:
http://wiki.debian.org/rtl819x#Wheezy
And you are still experiencing problems within the amd64 system, you can
open a bug report against "wireless-tools" because the package of
firmware itself is architecture-independent.
There is a very useful tool (reportbug) you can use to open the report at
Debian BTS, just follow the on-screen wizard.
