Benjamin,

Thanks for the suggestion, but the only way I can get it to work is by
running iwconfig and dhcpcd.  They all is well.  Do you have to run
those steps every time you boot?  If so, I have a script I wrote for
configuring my wifi card (a work around to my current issues).  It
allows me to select the wireless network I'm on and then sets the rest
up for me.  If you would like it, I'll send it to you.

Thanks for trying to help,
Daniel

Login as root and try this:

# > ifdown ethX
# > killall dhcpcd
# > ifup ethX
# > dhcpcd

Substitute the 'X' with the number of your wireless card... e.g. "eth0" 
or "eth1"

It worked for me... but it's pretty annoying that there's no GUI with a 
button saying "renew WLAN DHCP".

the module is correct, because all that I need to do is iwconfig and
dhcpcd to get it working (I have to do it every time I boot). So, this
is what happens:

command line isn't the end of the world, but it is a digression.
