Please remove or comment out the entries for wlan0 from
/etc/network/interfaces:

# The primary network interface
auto wlan0
iface wlan0 inet dhcp
	# wireless-* options are implemented by the wireless-tools package
	wireless-mode managed
	wireless-essid phoenix

With entries for interfaces set up in the /e/n/i file, NetworkManager
ignores the interface and considers it not managed.

Title:
  Network manager reports wireless card as "Device Not Managed"

Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  After upgrading to 11.10, I sometimes get the error in the network
  manager applet "Device Not Managed" under the wlan0 and wlan1 cards in
  my laptop. Its always in wlan1 (a USB plug & play linksys 802.11g,
  don't have it available to me atm), and on occasion the wlan0 card
  (inbuilt card, no clue what it is). At this point, I go into the
  terminal and try to set it up with iwconfig, but either I can't figure
  it out or it doesn't work, because it won't allow me to do anything,
  even as root.

  I run an Asus K50ij laptop, only modification is 4 GB of ram instead
  of 3.
