Wireless fails to obtain IP

[bojo]

My SL5600 with AmbiCom CF wireless card works great when I float around the wifi on my local campus, however, when I try to connect up to my dlink at home I run into some problems.  My home network is setup to use 128bit WEP, MAC filtering, and I have an SSID set.  I have entered my wifi cards mac address into the dlink like I would any other computer, and when I setup the networking options and configure the wireless it actually sees my network.  The problem is the fact that it can't seem to grab an IP address, and that is throwing me off.

If anyone could nudge me in the right direction, I would greatly appreciate it.

This might seem kinda obvious, but you're sure that you're either a) using a DHCP server (or some other Zaurus-compatible automatic IP thing), or b) have it set up right?

If you're using DHCP you may want to try to increase DHCP_TIMEOUT option in your configuration file - /home/zaurus/Applications/Network/modules/WLANx.conf (find particular conf file for your connection). Then open this connection in Network Setting app and click OK, so that this option is saved into /etc/pcmcia/network.opts.

I noticed that no matter how I verified my settings, I had to use WEP and Open System.
