After booting, iwconfig wlan0 shows that there is no ESSID set. If I do
an "ifconfig wlan0 up", i get "Link is not ready" in my system log. This
is the same message that shows up earlier in my system log when the
"networking" service attempts to set it up in the first place.

If I start the "networking" service, nothing happens, it just says
"Configuration network interfaces..." I have to /restart/ it in order
for the wireless configuration to complete. Having done that, I see
"Link is ready", and it shows me getting a DHCP response.

So it seems that, for some reason, the service is failing to set up my
wireless config (ESSID, WPA2 key, etc.) at boot time, but after
everything has started I can do it again and it works fine.
