I had a similar problem with a belkin wireless router,it turned out to be the mac address filtering which i had enabled it was allowing the mac id of the nic but because the wirless card had a differnet mac address it was being blocked.
If you have enabled mac address filtering check the mac id of the wireless card is being allowed to access the network.
