NetworkManager not connecting automatically

I am running Ubuntu 7.04 on a Dell Inspiron 1501 with a Dell 1390 
wireless card and using ndiswrapper 1.46 and the Dell R140747 driver.

Every time I boot, NM sees my access point and tries to connect but 
fails and displays the dual computer icon with the red x.  I can 
left-click and select my network(already selected via radio button) and 
it repeats the same action.  If I left click the icon, select "Create a 
new wireless network", let the name default to my computer name and 
click connect, it tries again and will time out.  Then if I left-click 
and select my network, it will finally connect.  I have to create a new 
network every time.  Anyone have any idea what is keeping it from 
connecting automatically?
