This seemed to help! Now after I do -- "Connect to New Wireless Network" and enter in SSID and WEP stuff and NM fails to connect because of now DHCP....
I get a small 'arrow' to right of SSID list when you L-click on network manager... The resulting pop-up menu has the connection(s) that I manually entered. I can select those, and NM seems to obey the config I saved. I had to attempt to connect once to the target SSID - before the SSID would appear (and the little arrow) in my NM-applet list. I suspect this is because my target network has a hidden SSID -- it would be cool if connections are available -- perhaps under the "Create New..." option.... After connecting and reconnecting & nm-applet considering things OK -- i got bars and a connect confirmation -- I had no significant network connectivity (i.e. couldn't browse internet etc) . catting /etc/resolv.conf and reviewing settings with ifconfig/iwconfig/route all my settings seemed OK. After some random tinkering and connecting and reconnecting -- I finally got gmail to load and a few other pages....but ...things are very patchy...Internet connectivity fades in and out.... Still trouble shooting this....could be not related to NM....(however I had scripted connecting to this network via a ksh script (after turning off NM) under Fedora 8 -- and it generally worked well) ...any further help would be great.... (after a reboot...and a few reconnects....and some idle period in between....now my connection seems much better .... so things seemed to be working OK!).
