Bug Description

I have a Dell Mini 9 - broadcom wireless card w/ STA driver. I am using a linksys router WTR54G2.
I was doing fine until I updated ubuntu - download 90+ updates (approx 4/18/09). Since then my wireless takes a lot longer to connect, the networkmanager applet always asks twice for the password/key which it I have already placed - I just have to press enter, then again it will ask and then connect. It is fine till I need to reconnect and the same process repeats. This is very annoying since prior to the "update" connected really quickly. I have cleared all the passwords/keys from password/encryption manager initially to see if that helped now it sometimes just asks for the password once.
I am using WPA2 encryption.
Please help!
thanks. (also I am not great in retrieving data files since linux is new to me so please explain how I am to attach any data files you may need).
