I just looked. I see just about all the error messages that appeared in
the terminal window when I tried to get an IP address. But no more
explanation than what I saw in the terminal window, e.g.:

wmaster0: unknown hardware address type 801
wmaster0: unknown hardware address type 801
Listening on LPF/wlan0/00:13:e8:b7:47:59
Sending on   LPF/wlan0/00:13:e8:b7:47:59

DHCPDISCOVER on wlan0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 13
DHCPDISCOVER on wlan0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 4
No DHCPOFFERS received.
No working leases in persistent database - sleeping.

Thanks for the suggestions. I haven't googled yet on the problem, so
that is what I will do next. I can't do any more testing until Friday
when I am back on campus where I have a wireless network to attempt to
connect to.
