OK, this is what we know:
You are connected to your router via ethernet   :)
Your wireless works... 

Is your ESSID one of:
>                      ESSID:"linksys"
>                      ESSID:"2WIRE860"

And is the MAC address of the wireless interface of your router either of:
>            Cell 01 - Address: 00:23:69:56:30:F9
>            Cell 02 - Address: 00:1F:B3:00:01:A9

If so, your router is out there.
Look at the syntax of iwconfig and do:
ifconfig eth1 up
iwconfig essid <your ESSID> eth1
dhclient eth1 

If you get an IP address, and can talk to your router, your issue is with 
the graphical interface.
Maybe...   ;-)
ET 

PS: DO NOT connect to the same router with both interfaces (or same subnet).
It may work, but it will break...
