Wireless problem

It appears that the problem was incomplete removal of the knetwork manager app. Something must have happened during the upgrade to 4.6 that restored it to the inoperable state it had known since kdeSC4.3. I used synaptic package manager to mark the package for "complete removal" rather than just for "removal" (purge option in apt-get) and installed wicd.
Now wicd works fine and I can connect wirelessly!

Subject: Wireless problem
Since upgrading to kdeSC4.6, I have been unable to get a wireless connection to any access point. I can detect wireless signals, but attempting to access either password protected or unsecured access points always times out.
I've tried both kdenetwork manager and wicd. Clearly something must have gotten uninstalled or busted during the upgrade, but I can't imagine what.
Any help greatly appreciated.
Paul
