Are you sure the router has a connection to the internet? Ping the router and then ping an outside host.

Are you using DHCP or a static address? Check to make sure you actually have an address with ifconfig.

That's your problem. You have to set a gateway. You should also set the subnet mask and DNS servers, or just enable DHCP.

Code:
# cat /proc/kmsg
and in an other terminal
Code:
# /etc/init.d/net.wlan0 restart


Wait a bit then post the output of both. The two files mention by d2_racing are of special interest too. Forget about the gui tool for a moment.

So the driver seems to work. What remains is your configuration.

Does your router not have a dhcp server witch you could use to automatically obtain an ip?

I recommend to reread chapter 3 of the Gentoo Handbook:
http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-amd64.xml?part=1&chap=3

/etc/conf.d/net.example is another source of info on how to setup your network.

After you do the above and restart wlan0:

Code:

ping 192.168.1.254


Code:

ifconfig


Code:

ping 209.85.171.100


Code:

What do you get?

I have the same problem.

Happened after a kernel upgrade from 2.6.24-gentoo-r4 to 2.6.28-gentoo-r5. I wonder if the O.P found a solution.

In my case I found the culprit. Before the kernel upgrade, I was running wireless on device name ath0 and afterward it changed to wlan0.
So I

Code:

ln -s /etc/init.d/net.lo /etc/init.d/net.wlan0
/etc/init.d/net.wlan0 start


It is working fine now.
