Intrepid amd64 -- Suddenly lost wireless (and wired) networking, via NM.

I upgraded to Jaunty, hoping that that would fix the issue, but no such luck.

I'm attaching my networking info -- lshw, lspci, ifconfig, iwconfig.

Below is what happened when I attempted to configure the wireless/WEP interface manually:

$ ifconfig wlan0 down

$ dhclient -r wlan0
