same result.

ath0 IEEE 802.11g ESSID:"JAG76" Nickname:""

Ok, so the card is apparently not associated with the AP.
You got me a good clue : I saw that Access Point: Not-Associated
and I did :sudo ifconfig ath0 to get my HWaddr
after that I did: sudo iwconfig ath0 ap xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx
+ sudo dhclient ath0 and now the wifi works fine :-)
I don't understand truly why I lost my connection wifi.
Perhaps it happened when I changed my key WPA:
I changed it in /etc/network/interfaces but I forgot to change it
in /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
What does 'iwlist ath0 scan' give? Does 'ifconfig ath0 up' followed by
'iwconfig
ath0 essid nnnnnnnn' accomplish anything?
Many thanks for your help and sorry for the trouble.
