Sorry - I realized a brief portion of out conversation was done off-list.

I just noticed that when I put in the ssid ifconfig seems to be
cycling among multiple channels (1,5, 11,12,13 ,14 and maybe others).

I'm not sure what this behavior means.

What would the best way see why I can't connect be?

I tried
$ifconfig wlan0 txpower 50
but txpower stays at 30.

Is this for sure a signal strength problem? it worked when I used ndis
from the same location.
