I'm comfortable using the command-line tools, and yes, it could be a
temporary workaround, but I'd rather fix NetworkManager. I switch
between wireless networks all the time, and I don't want to type at a
terminal prompt every time I need to connect somewhere new. I used to
do that, but never again. :)
I'm looking for ease-of-use, and the ability to fluidly move between
networks without having to do anything at all. NetworkManager
accomplishes that nicely for me right now, with this one exception.
It's weird, though. I wonder what's going on with it?
Haven't really had time to troubleshoot it much.
