Before you check "enable wireless", what is the contents of:

/var/lib/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.state

and what is the output of:

rfkill list
cat /sys/class/rfkill/*/state
cat /sys/class/rfkill/*/type

Lets see what those have in them and then we can debug further.  ALso,
what are the top lines of /var/log/daemon.log when NetworkManager starts
up?  It'll be something like this:

Aug  2 21:34:54 dcbw NetworkManager[1271]: <info> WiFi enabled by radio killswitch; enabled by state file
Aug  2 21:34:54 dcbw NetworkManager[1271]: <info> WWAN disabled by radio killswitch; disabled by state file
Aug  2 21:34:54 dcbw NetworkManager[1271]: <info> WiMAX enabled by radio killswitch; enabled by state file
Aug  2 21:34:54 dcbw NetworkManager[1271]: <info> Networking is enabled by state file
