I can confirm this with ipw2200. Sometimes after boot nm-applet is running but 
isn't shown in tray and Wlan connection isn't established. After system reboot 
it works normally fine again.
I have restarted Network-Manager with "sudo 
/etc/dbus-1/event.d/25NetworkManager restart && sudo 
/etc/dbus-1/event.d/26NetworkManagerDispatcher restart" which lets nm-applet 
appear in tray for some seconds but then it was vanished again.
According to syslog there was a problem with wpa_supplicant and according to ps 
it was still running so I killed it. After another Network-Manager restart 
nm-applet was shown again in tray and connection was established fine. So at 
least for me it is no nm-applet problem but a Network-Manager and it seems to 
be for at least some others too.
So the workaround is to run this command "sudo killall wpa_supplicant && sudo 
/etc/dbus-1/event.d/25Networager restart" but since it happens on nearly every 
second Gutsy start it is no solution.
