0.8.1-6 certainly improves things. It almost makes NetworkManager work 
as well as it used to. It was never entirely reliable in its 
suspend/resume behaviour, but it only used to screw up every few days. 
0.8.1-4 makes it screw up every time. 0.8.1-6 makes 802.11 work most of 
the time, but my 3G modem connection is still quirkier than it used to 
be. It seems most of the quirkiness occurs if the machine tries to 
establish an 802.11 connection and a 3G connection at the same time. So, 
0.8.1-6 is definitely a big improvement on 0.8.1-4, but it looks like 
something is still more broken than before the 0.8.1-4 update.
