I'm using Fedora 9, and when I right click the Network Manager applet in my task tray, and choose "Edit Connections," I find that these kinds of solutions are available in the IP setup tab for any of my wireless networks. For example, there's a setting for "DHCP (addresses only)," and there's a setting to put in a BSSID for a particular wireless AP, so you can create connections that are per-AP if you like, and then select them manually from the applet. There's also the /etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d/ folder, which lets you drop scripts in for special management whenever Network Manager connects or disconnects. -- Paul W.
