    reset your router.. (the reset button, not turn it off and on)
    go to console type, iwlist scan
    If your network is there type, iwconfig wlan0 essid "HOSTNAME"
    then type dhcpcd
    If you still need a WEP/WPA key then refer to your router... (its on the sticker usually)

    to check if your connected type, iwconfig eth0
    if you have a mac address and an IP listed there.. Then your on. :)
