I noticed the following in the Release Notes for Gutsy:

Network Manager
*      In Ubuntu 7.10, network-manager only manages interfaces that are marked 
for roaming. Thus, all interfaces that were previously managed by 
network-manager will be set to roaming mode during upgrade. Technically, this 
takes any interface stanzas using the dhcp method with no options and that are 
marked auto, and removes them from /etc/network/interfaces. If you rely on your 
interfaces being started by ifupdown when the system starts up, you need to 
re-enable them in /etc/network/interfaces manually, or disable roaming in 
System -> Administration -> Network.

I still think that network management for wireless needs to be a lot
easier, hopefully including a Wi-Fi Radar and easy setup for connecting
to new wireless networks.
