I think I'd check your security settings betweeen the NIC and router.

If your signal strength is 100%, but not getting any connectivity, I'd definately lean twords an authentication issue.

You are not being issued with an Ip address from the DHCP server so you definately are not authenticated.

Check the SSID is the same for the router and the card.

Disable any security initially untill you get it working.

Once everything is talking correctly then implement your securty.
