How are you controlling the network? Is it with NetworkManager? Please post the output of the command 'iwconfig'. If you get a "command not found" message, you will need to provide the full path such as /sbin/iwconfig. Also, does scanning work? Use the command 'sudo iwlist scan'. That command may also require a full path.
