You could use the "iw" commands:

man iw

which should give you the info you need.

"NAME

       iw - show / manipulate wireless devices and their configuration"

if you would like to review a tutorial:

http://linuxcommando.blogspot.com/2013/10/how-to-connect-to-wpawpa2-wifi-network.html

has a decent write up if a bit dated.  Should get you pointed in the right direction but everything still looks good on quick review.

HIH,

Thanks to everybody for the replies. None of these worked, however. The weird thing was that when I tried the nmcli or tried to turn on NetworkManager, it dropped me back to the login prompt.

I eventually gave up and reinstalled.
