I was getting the same thing on a Quad a few versions back using 2 different dongles. Finally turned off network security to test and that worked.

Turned security back on, reflashed, rebooted router and GB box, re-entered network data and left it for an hour. When I came back, it had connected. Don't understand why the time delay works but it works.

Unfortunately on the Quad on the latest VIX, it doesn't even show the option to select the wifi adapter anymore, using exactly the same driver. Hopefully a fix is coming.
