Hi,
I went through the output and pulled out the interesting parts, and will
go through them below. Sorry for the html email, but colors help with
this.
Also, can you do a test with WPA (vs WPA2), WEP, or Open (no
encryption), as it looks like your issue is with the encryption.
Please run the following commands and supply their output:
ls -l /lib/firmware/ | grep ipw
dpkg -l wpasupplicant

iwconfig output, we can see the adapter is seen as "eth1" (eth0 is your
wired connection, thus no wireless extensions), that it's associated
with the network "WLG" and the AP's MAC address (Which you could verify
with your router/AP). The critical item here is the invalid crypt
frames, there are a ton of them and no real valid frames. This means
that your WPA/WPA2 is not working right, hence why I am asking if WPA
Supplicant is installed in the commands above.

Can you give us the output of the following commands (in a terminal
window).
I appended the text to a reply but it looks like the Listserv isn't
letting it though... probably too long.
Here it is www.winterlight.org/hwglinux.txt
but first your last command = iwconfig>> ~/hwglinux.txt
returned
lo no wireless extensions
irda0 no wireless extensions.
etho0 no wireless extensions
thanks for the help Harry. w
