What kind of log would you like me to send?  Associating with an AP
won't leave a trace in either dmesg output, /var/log/messages,
NetworkManager's debug output, or dbus-monitor --system.

The output of the iwconfig commands I'm running is below.

If that's helpful for you, the card works fine if I just run "dhclient
eth2" manually.
