Last week, I was back at my friends place, where I happened to be when I originally upgraded to Feisty and reported this bug. I was surprised that Network-Manager immediately connected to the router there with no problems (without nm-applet running). I happily used my laptop for several days. At this location there were no other networks of any strength within range. I returned home, and tried to connect with my own router. No luck. It wouldn't connect to my router, but sometimes connected to the commercial wireless network in this area (Atria Networks). They use a web based login and are only free at the local libraries. Thinking that maybe the router was a problem, I changed to a Netgear router that I happened to have. Still no luck. Anyhow, after a couple of hours of fiddling today, I finally removed Network-Manager from my system and configured /etc/network/interfaces in the normal manner. I now can connect with no problem. It is clear to me that Network-Manager is alpha quality software that is not ready to be included in a stable release of Ubuntu.
