You have a fully functional wireless card. It has authenticated and associated with the access point. Association can be confirmed with iwconfig. If you have physical access (and only if you have) to the machine bring down the wired connection with ifdown -v eth0 Check with route -n Now obtain an IP address for the wlan0 interface with dhclient -v wlan0 The wireless connection lasts as long as the machine is not powered off or rebooted.
