Before I used Network Manager to manage my connections my wireless
interface would be activated on boot. Without an access point I
(obviously) could not connect to the net, but I could still ping my
local machine with the static IP (192.168.0.100). With Network Manager
managing my connection I cannot do this.
Does that make sense?

Your email does not make much sense. It may help if you
explain what you are trying to accomplish. The 127.0.0.1 always
returns pings because its the loopback device. If the wireless is not
connected to an access point then I do not see why it would be in the
routing tables. If you want a useless device with an address look into
creating a dummy device and assign it the address.

Everything works fine when I'm connected to an Access Point. Without
the access point ping returns "connect : Network is unreachable". Using
127.0.0.1 works, but I'd rather have the static IP accessible. The
routing table is empty. How do I setup Network Manager so the IP is
available?
Thanks.
