Hmm... Do you know what wireless hardware you have installed? Running "/sbin/lspci" from a terminal would say, or you can just reply with whatever it spits out. Second, NM dumps logs to /var/log/messages, so I could get a peek at your /var/log/messages file after you've tried & failed to connect, that would be quite helpful. It's a big file though, so email it to me privately rather than sending it to the list.
