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.
