Thanks for you reply. On further googling, I found that similar cards 
had the same problem.  It seems that if one does a tcpdump in another 
terminal while using NM it works.  I even got the latest firmware on the 
router.

what works:

tcpdump -i wlan0 host <hostname>

Then run NM and voila! I was able to connect.  I wonder why the card has 
to be in promiscuous mode to work?

Anyone have any thoughts?

Phil
