Well, I'm not sure how you'd use wireless without knetwork manager, like 
Mathias said, but...

I had the same issue for a year or so until I activated KWallet. I let 
KNetwork manager have access to KWallet and it now correctly connects to my 
WPA secured network rather than my neighbors' unsecured networks. 

Let me know if you have any issues.
