Done a lil more digging re my wireless and dunno if the following will help
iwconfig gives the following
wlan0 IEEE 802.11g ESSID:"abrasax" Nickname:""
Mode:Managed Frequency:2.437 GHz Access Point: 00:1B:11:D4:EA:32
Bit Rate=54 Mb/s Tx-Power=27 dBm

Link Quality=100/100 Signal level=-34 dBm Noise level=-94 dBm
Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0
Tx excessive retries:0 Invalid misc:0 Missed beacon:0
I'm gathering nothing usefull there for now
sudo dhclient if_name gives the following
