Hello, I've recently done a fresh install of ubuntu 12.04 on a new laptop (asus zenbook prime ux31a). I'm able to connect to the internet using wifi, but usually it takes a good 10-15 minutes of repeated attempts to connect before the network manager makes the connection. I've uninstalled the default network manager and am using wicd right now, but it has the same issues. It basically gets indefinitely hung up on the "Obtaining IP address..." step. I've searched around online for a solution but haven't been able to find one yet.
If someone could point me to a solution or help out I'd appreciate it.
Here is some info that may be useful:

$ iwconfig
