My Dell Inspiron 9300's wifi stopped connecting to my access point with kernel update 2.6.24-22. I am able to boot with -21 and have working wifi. Later kernel updates have not fixed the issue either (the latest one I have is -23).

Symptoms: Network Manager applet shows it is trying to connect to my access point, and sees it and other access points around as well. But rather than connect, it asks me for my WEP key info after a while, then tries for a while, asks for WEP info, ad nauseam. In that sense it looks like https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/284308

My writeup of my system is here: http://www.heikkitoivonen.net/linux/ubuntu-8.04-9300.html

Will attach other info.
