Wireless networks detected but unable to connect

[Isthatyourfinal]

New Ubuntu user here, and I'm having difficulties connecting to my router at home.
I've searched around the forum for a couple of hours now, to no avail.
My router was originally not broadcasting ssid, so I turned broadcasting on. Now I can see the router, but when I enter a password (which I know is correct) nothing gets connected.
Can someone tell me where to start?

and post the outcome here by clicking on new reply and click # and paste the information between the brackets.
Thank you

Hi, try the command that returned no results like this and see what happens.

lspci -nn

From now on post all your information in one post, so we can keep things tidy, I believe I gave instructions in my post on how to post the results so it fits easy in to a post.
Thank you
