Try deleting the CHANNEL line (or comment it out) in the ifcfg file.  I
have experienced a problem with ipw2200bg chipset where that appears to
be a possible fix.  Was able to see the access points but the card was
never able to establish a connection and get an IP address.

Suspect this points to a fundamental flaw in how the wireless cards are
handled by the system.
