On 20070322 builds, Ubuntu and Kubuntu boot up with "No network connection". Left click on the icon, click to activate, and it does. Since it comes right up, there was no technical reason to de-activate the network during boot as shown in the syslogs above.
Xubuntu Feisty, Dapper, Simply Mepis, PCLinuxOS, ... don't have the problem. Advantage everyone else except Feisty Ubuntu, Kubuntu. In my opinion, this is an anklebiter problem, not likely to stop a "ordinary desktop computer user", just annoy. It would certainly save a lot of people a lot of grief (see above comments) if the "Network (mis)manager" booted up off, so those that wanted it could turn it on.
