you can try:
Code:
sudo iwconfig wlan0 essid 24PW5
sudo dhclient wlan0
it'll probably be easier to connect using the network manager menu if your router is using encryption (what error are you getting ?).

if you run iwconfig again it will show that your wireless adapter is associated with your router.dhclient didnt work because you didnt supply your wpa/wpa2/wep key. (there is a way to do that in iwconfig but i forget how).
