yes it is the password, case sensitive
Is the correct protocol selected on the Ubuntu box for the router. ie. there the same protocol with the same SSID and password. If you have entered all of this it should work
Setitng up wireless is easy. Same with bluetooth. These two are probably easier to set up on linux than windows, same with static ip's for wired
that said i could never get my old ubuntu box to connect to an old Netgear wireless router. that said i couldn't get windows to connect either. I do lie, i got the XP laptop to connect once for a period of about 10 minutes.
OOH
just thought under settings for network in ubuntu do you have a static ip address set up for wireless connectivity or DHCP (ip obtained by host)
check your routers setting maybe you have or someone else for you has set up MAC address limiting or assigned specific IP's to specific box names or limited the amount of IP's. I do this on my network's as a security measure. To prevent unauthorized access as well as WPA.
Let me know how you go

Hi :)
This specifically linux forum should be able to help
http://www.linuxquestions.org
as it deals with a huge range of different versions of linux but is dedicated to linux support.
Even better might be the specifically Ubuntu forums and documentation
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Links?action=show&redirect=Signpost%2FQuestions#help
Good luck and regards from

Some usb stick modem needs to be unmounted prior to connecting to the internet. Ubuntu sometimes detects some usb stick modems as a storage device. So try un-mounting the device first. Also configure APN settings properly in the VPN configuration. Sometimes wrong APN are used as default resulting to inability to connect to the internet.
Hope this helps.
