I have a Belkin PCMIA wirelss card using the ath5k module.
Depending on where I am at I can connect manually using iwconfig if I know the ESSID. However depending on the router (AKA the coffee shop wifi vs. college wifi) I cannot associate with the access point and cannot get a lease from dhcpcd. Works fine some places, other places not so much. I know this is an Arch linux issue--my card and driver worked fine in Ubuntu.
This may or may not be related:
Using iwlist wlan0 ap I get
wlan0 Interface doesn't have a list of Peers/Access-Points
Any ideas?

Replacing dhcpcd with dhclient is generally a good idea. It's faster, or at least for me.
I might be wrong, since I don't use netcfg, but you might have to replace dhcpcd for dhclient in the scripts (and the syntax) for it to work.
