Try this:

If you have set any wireless encryption to your
router, remove it, then from the command line...

#ififconfiglwlanininetp
#iwiwlistlwlanscan

the output should look something like this:

wlwlan    Scan completed :
           Cell 01 - Address: 00:11:22:33:44:55

                     Extra:bcbcnnt=100
                     Extra:atatim

To connect (Assuming the router/AP is set for
DHDHCPyou only need to do this:

#iwiwconfiglwlanesessidnot-an-esessid
#dhdhclientlwlan

The driver should handle the mode, channel, and bit
rate automatically. When you connect, and the signal
ststrengths to your liking add encryption to the
signal. 

#iwiwconfiglwlankey restricted 123456789

When that is to your liking and you can connect, add
the  relevant information to your
/etc/network/interfaces file like so:

auto lo wlwlan

ififacelwlanininethdhcpwireless_key 123456789
wireless_kekeymoderestricted | open]
wireless_mode [Managed | Ad-HoHoc
wireless_esessidot-an-esessid
Hope it helps :-)
