Intel Mac Mini and WPA problems

Huh.

Mac Mini -> iBook (Shared internet, Ethernet -> airport, no encryption) - Works
Mac Mini -> iBook (Shared internet, Ethernet -> airport, WEP enabled) - Did not work the first time (could not get IP via DHCP). Worked after 10.4.7 was installed and system restarted.

Mac Mini -> Router (WPA enabled) - Still fails. WTF.

"Internet Connect" says it's "Connected to "Juang"", "Juang" being our wireless network.

But it doesn't work. No, I can't say if it can get an IP or not, since we use static IP settings, but... can't ping in or out.

Flipping Airport on and off to force a reconnect triggers:
/System/Library/PrivateFramworks/Apple80211.framework/Resources/airport: Error: WirelessAssociate2() = 88001006 for network juang
/System/Library/PrivateFramworks/Apple80211.framework/Resources/airport: Error: (had password)

Regardless, "Internet Connect" still says "Connected to "Juang"", but with a "Getting status..." error at the bottom.
