It's weird. I just bought it used on eBay. I can connect to other
routers within range of the card, but it won't connect to MY router, a
Motorola WR850G. I have no idea why not. Anybody got a clue? Thanks.

Have you disabled all security features on your router?

Disable MAC address filtering or enter the MAC address of your wireless
card.

Pitiful, ain't it? Why didn't I think of that? Kinda obvious,
actually. And exactly the cause of the problem. Everything's fine
now. Thanks, all.
