It is set to "connect automatically", which means that ONBOOT="yes" is 
set in its config file in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-[device]. 
To prevent a connection attempt on boot you would change that to "no" in 
the config file or uncheck "connect automatically" under "edit 
connections" from the desktop network manager widget.

If you do this you will need to manually select a wireless network to 
connect to after you log in -- not really a big deal, but this appears 
to be another Network Manager wart which prevents the boot time from 
being dependent on wireless negotiation (which can take a while 
sometimes). In any case, things seem to be "working as intended".
