Unable to connect to WiFi on 10.6.8

I just moved to a new apartment and have thus far been unable to connect to the WiFi here.

After browsing these forms and Google and trying a good number of solutions that worked for others I'm left at a loss. I running a MacBook Pro 15" with OSX 10.6.8 SL and attempting to connect througn WiFi to a Netgear WPN824v3 with no success.

I am able to see the SSID in my Airport dropdown and it recognizes that it is secured with WPA however, when I enter the correct password it states: "Connection Failed" If I enter the wrong password it states: "Invalid Password"

I have tried restarting multiple times. I shutdown and rebooted manually,

Rebooted the router,

Deleted:

com.apple.airport.preferences.plist

NetworkInterfaces.plist

preferences.plist

Reset my NVRAM,

Changed the routers mode from 108Mb to G&B only as well as changing the channel to both 1 then 11, (its currently back on 108Mb mode and channel 6)

Installed all software updates as of 03/21/13.

I also tried repairing disk permissions.

I'm currently at a loss and can only connect through ethernet here at my apartment while my roommates (and my phone) can access through the wifi. (I have no issue connecting to other Wifi connections, coffee shops etc.) Any help you guys could provide would be awesome.


Thanks in advance.
