The changes made this afternoon have made NM fail to make a wireless connection. syslog shows an attempt to make an Open System connection, which would normally be successful. Then an attempt is make to make a Shared Key connection. No connection is made. After stoping NM and NMInfo, iwconfig eth1 shows

eth1 unassociated ESSID:"mosswap"
Mode:Managed Channel=0 Access Point: 00:00:00:00:00:00
Bit Rate=0kb/s Tx-Power=20 dBm
RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off
Encryption key:xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xx Security mode:restricted
Power Management:off
Link Quality:0 Signal level:0 Noise level:0
Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:1 Rx invalid frag:0
Tx excessive retries:0 Invalid misc:0 Missed beacon:0


Note that the essid and key have been set but no MAC address has been set for the AP. This is where the problem lies.
