That was my experience as well until I tried the preshared connection

Maybe you need to turn verbose/debugging or whatever mode on in some
config file ;)

Give dhcpcd a whirl too. Some combinations of DHCP client and router are
buggy; you can switch to another DHCP c

Many thanks, Camaleon and Charlier. I'm not using Network-Manager or
wicd. I did try both of them in the long-ago but found it easier to set

I have this stanza in /etc/network/interfaces:
auto eth1
iface eth1 inet dhcp
wireless-mode managed
wireless-essid 'My ESSID'
At the end of booting, the system tries to connect to the wireless point

I then do:
sudo ifd
