What is your DSL equipment? In some areas the Westell 327W is popular with Verizon. There is a certain revision of this hardware that is incompatible with Dell's wireless adapters. After all this time I find it difficult to believe that any of it is still being used, but just in case, you should read this: Cannot Establish Link to Westell Versalink. Make sure you read the entire thing as this problem only affects a specific revision of the Westell 327W that is equipped with a certain revision of the firmware. If your configuration is different in any respect at all, I'm afraid you will need to continue your search for a solution.
Best of luck to you.
