I tried everything I could, including stuff I probably shouldn't have touched, thinking I would re-install Hardy. Yesterday I added the network monitor and a notification area to the top panel. I got a new menu separator, a thing that tells me that I'm using an English keyboard and...........................the network manager applet!!!!!! I clicked on wireless and hey presto, I'm finally online.
Maybe this may help somebody else - I hope so.
Maybe it would be a good idea to be able to enable wireless without using network manager?
