I am experiencing the same problem. I am running ubuntu 6.10. The wireless network connection does not work on boot with an encrypted router. I have tried both WEP and WPA. The only way I can get the wireless card to connect is to disable encryption security on my router. I am using a NETGEAR WGR614 v3 router with the latest drivers (V2.16RC4_1.0.2). I have not attempted the suggested fix - I am not sure which configuration file to modify to change the order of iwconfig commands.
