This has nothing to do with your authentication application which resides completely on the external network/router. My guess is that Network Manager is not associating to the AP properly, which is why dhclient is unable to fetch an IP and is assigning that default IP for everything. It's really odd that this is happening, however, vs. Network Manager simply failing to bring up the connection. Have you changed your dhclient configuration? You need to post the output of /var/log/syslog when NM tries to connect, this is undoubtedly a dupe of another bug, just have to figure out which one.
