Oh I'm very familiar with wireless-tools to assign ESSIDs and whatnot.
What I experienced is I would set an ESSID (no key, wide open) but
iwconfig wouldn't show the wireless device bound to it, nor would a
dhclient find a DHCP server to get an address from.

Now my problem is that it won't even load the firmware.
