Great suggestions to try 1st.  If that does not help, you can also try 
this (in no specific order):
	- Just turn off the Airport card and turn it back on, sometimes that 
resets things.
	- Make a new location instead of appending the wireless info into your 
current location.  In the new location, set up both the ethernet and 
wireless cards like you want them.
