No, I'm not running Network Manager. When I start it it just turn off my
link. I'm working in runlevel 3 over a telnet conection using the wireless
link.
When Network Manager starts it just turn off the wireless link and never
comes off again.
This is my /var/log/messages when starting network manager.

Is NetworkManager running?
Are you running the Gnome NM applet?
