It sounds like you are not providing the security key. You have to
configure the interface for the type of encryption you are using,
and give it the key. You also have to make sure you are in the
managed mode. The network configuration GUI can set things up for
you. (You can also set it up using iwconfig, but you will have to do
it again after a reboot.)
