Mario,
I had the same problem with the madwifi driver (the newer proprietary
one); I think this isn't too uncommon, so I don't think you're doing
anything wrong. I create a netprofile called 'None' for when I'm using
wireless and just use a script to bring up wireless.
I realize this doesn't help too much, but hopefully it's helpful to know
you probably aren't doing something wrong.
