[plug] ma111 usb wireless adapter

[Darren]

Howdy list i am trying to get this ma111 to work on my laptop for a 
couple of weeks now ,and now its time to seek help .its running ubuntu 
4.10  the laptop has an  internal intel lan connection which seems to 
work fine .i have a e-smith dhcp server on the network that dishes out 
ip's . running ifconfig  i can see wlan0 but it has no ip address 
,running dhclient wlan0 it just times out .the ma111 works no probs with 
m$ so the hardware must be ok . i have the linux-wlanctl-ng package 
installed and have followed different instructions on the net to no 
avail.i must be close to solving this as wlan0  is visible .running 
lsmod   shows the prism2 module loaded.any help and ideas would be 
greatly appreciated.Thanks
