Ok, rebooted, this time with the RJ-45 unplugged.

System booted fine, NetworkManager popped up the 'unlock keyring'
dialog right after login.

After entering keyring passphrase, NM associated successfully (yea!),
'route' showed a proper routing table, and a 'traceroute' succeeded.

However, network immediately 'dis-associated', and would not associate again.

Snippet from /var/log/messages:
May  1 14:03:28 localhost NetworkManager: <info>  Activation
(eth0/wireless): access point 'INSIDE' is encrypted, but NO valid key
exists.  New key needed.
May  1 14:03:28 localhost NetworkManager: <info>  Activation (eth0)
New wireless user key requested for network 'INSIDE'.

Stage 2 of 5 (Device Configure) complete.

Where NM just hangs after the last line.
