Here are some answers to your questions:

1) There are couple bugs in the current DHCP implementation.
2) The SB3 is really a SqueezeBox2, third generation.
3) Don't know.  Could be as simple as some corruption in the initial
SSID string presented (like a trailing space?) and that by cycling
though the SSIDs, this is cleared.
4) This occurs with some other qualified products as well, not just
SB2/3.  My wife's IBM ThinkPad had trouble with SSID disabled as well. 
It seems pretty clear the Association process for the SB2/3 wiresless
implementation could try harder.
5) Hard to say - this could be router independent, and/or could be
related to the above.  It takes 3-4 for mine.
