Zorin 9 WiFi hookup issue

Greetings Tribe! Hope you had a good holiday.

I can't get my WiFi to engage. It knows a strong signal is present but the arrows on the AWN bar keep spinning and the "Connect" button on the Authentication box with the password line never highlights for selection.

I know I've got the right network selected and the hardware works because the WiFi is OK with XP (on the same machine).

What can I try? Please be specific.

Hi Jesse, can you provide us with the make/model of machine and the wireless hardware in use? Thanks! :D

It's a Micron TransPort-1300e

Processor: Intel Core 2 CPU T5600 @ 1.83GHz x 2
Graphics: Intel 945GM x86/MMX/SSE2

Can you remind me how to find out what the WiFi hardware is?
