I was trying not to pick on you! Believe me, you are not the first...

Excellent news!
More success to report. NM does join me to 2 different WEP networks
that it was never able to join before. Key appears to be turning off
wpa_supplicant service. That is the only difference I tried this
time.
Okay, I know some people still use WEP at home, but with wpa_supplicant
out, can you still connect to normal business networks?
Spread the word. NM can work!
