That's odd

While I was still using a PCI wireless adapter to talk to my iBook, the latter required me to explicitly select the house wlan every time I woke it up. But having switched to a separate WAP, without having changed anything on the iBook, it now finds it automatically.

Was the PCI adapter in ad-hoc mode? That would explain it.

Yes, it would have been, I think. (It's now in a box of spare bits...)
