Yes, what you suggested will actually cause my manual setup to connect me to my network.

I seem to have discovered something else which will cause this to work. I have repeated the steps 5 or 6 times, and it is a repeatable situation. The exact steps are important: Enter network manager, click Unlock, enter password and hit enter, click to select wireless connection, click properties, uncheck enable roaming, fill in the fields, click Close button. At this point I am returned to the previous screen, as my processor usage jumps to 100. Here is the important step. If, as soon as I am able, I click close to exit the network-manager, my connection to the network will not work. However, I've noticed that if instead of clicking Close, I click back into the box to re-select my wireless connection for example, and then click the Close button, the connection WILL work.
