If wlan0 is working, the device must receive a IP adress from your router

Code:

sudo ifconfig wlan0 | grep inet

or

Code:

sudo ip add show wlan0 | grep inet

Btw, your /etc/network/interface looks ok

Ah, another idea, please post output of command

Code:

sudo dmesg | grep brcmfmac

must look like this:

Terminal

Yes, i can try to change my SSID name. Never had that problem. But...i´m pretty much stuck here :-)

My interfaces looks like this now (after your code):

Terminal

auto eth0 wlan0 lo

iface lo inet loopback

allow-hotplug eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp

allow-hotplug wlan0
iface wlan0 inet dhcp
wpa-ssid Asus router
wpa-psk apassword

Both output from:

Code:

sudo ifconfig wlan0 | grep inet

or

Code:

sudo ip add show wlan0 | grep inet

Will render nothing (command promt).

Output from sudo dmesg | grep brcmfmac:
