 No Scan on startup, that seems fine if wired is your normal.  Interestingly,  after my last post, wireless was working, I 
pulled out the wire, and rebooted. I couldn't get a wireless connection. The DHCP was still set to the default LAN0,  
and the timings on the widget for the card was so intensive that I could not open the RMB menu to turn the radio off. I 
finally figured out that pulling out the card would disable the widget.  I think that 'Retry every 2 seconds' is a bit brief 
and I will increase it to at least 5 or 10, which should give me a chance with the cursor.

A great Idea. A hook for a command to be run.  I think more available profiles would be great too.  I have wireless at 
my home, my friends, my in-laws and the car dealer (I don't mind waiting for that oil change now, I can have a 
Gevalia coffee and surf the web).  Except for the car dealer, they are all encrypted and the dealers is that stupid 
SSID "Honda Public' with the blank space.

I made mine radio On and Off.
