PCI wireless card cannot find IP address

I have a Linksys WRT54G router with a desktop on ethernet connection and a
laptop wireless that function properly. I am trying to set up the desktop
wireless and I have tried two PCI cards and both get the same problem. All
sets up OK and it shows the connection to the router as ok. However both
cards cannot find the IP address and indicate a continous effort to do so.
They indicate an IP address of 0.0.0.0.0.

If you setup wireless without security, can you receive IP?

Is your Key correct?
Is your SSID correct?
