In /etc/network/interfaces:
allow-hotplug wlan0
iface wlan0 inet dhcp
wpa-ssid yourESSID
wpa-psk "yourPSK"
Then
ifup -v wlan0 (You may have to do ifdown -v wlan0 first)
Check for association and getting an address with the iwconfig and
ifconfig commands.
On the other hand you might want to wait for someone to guide you
through using Network Manager, which I am not familiar with.
