Answer 1

If you're not having any luck with Ubuntu Network Manager then you might want to try a manual configuration.

The one thing that missing from your wireless info is your wpa_supplicant.conf file, which should contain the following lines:

network={
  ssid="your-wifi-network"
  psk="xxxxxx"
}

You also need to add a line in /etc/network/interfaces to point to your wpa_supplicant.conf file:

wpa-conf /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf

Once done reboot or restart networking service and this should be enough to associated with an AP. Let me know if you're still struggling...
