eth0      IEEE 802.11g  ESSID:"Lydgate2"  Nickname:"anne-laptop.lydgate.net"
          Mode:Managed  Frequency:2.422 GHz  Access Point: 0xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx
          Bit Rate:54 Mb/s   Tx-Power=20 dBm   Sensitivity=8/0  
          Retry limit:7   RTS thr:off   Fragment thr:off
          Encryption key: long string
         Security mode:open	#should be WPA-PSK
          Power Management:off
          Link Quality=99/100  Signal level=-22 dBm  Noise level=-92 dBm
          Rx invalid nwid:0  Rx invalid crypt:11  Rx invalid frag:0
          Tx excessive retries:0  Invalid misc:0   Missed beacon:0

Note that it says eth0, not wlan0.  I'll copy the ifcfg to eth0 and see if 
that makes any difference.
