Is WEP enabled? If I have WEP enabled and the card attempts to
associate with an AP that is not using the same WEP key, I get these
messages. 

If you are using WEP, please be sure to use a hex key. ASCII
keys seem to have interoperability issues, depending on the exact card
used. General advice is to just not use ASCII keys.
