Frank:  I see similar behavior when I use network profiles, but my issue is
that DHCP vs. static IP address information is not preserved across
profiles.  So if I need a static IP on one network, and then use DHCP on
another, my static IP goes away.  To restore, I have to set up the
connection again.

I think there's an issue here but I have not been able to definitely nail it
down.  Maybe others have had similar experiences?
