I would like some help on getting things to work better...
I gave up on NetworkManager about F12. I now use wicd. It scans for hot spots and and shows you the SSID's and strengths much like kismet. But it also handles your encryption requirements etc. Works well. The icon in the tray shows whether you are connected or not.
Suspend is always a problem for wireless. I have found (following postings here) that it is best to 'ifdown wlan0' the wireless before suspending. That leaves it in a proper state for re-instating after re-start.
