Your system thinks it has no network hardware connected (which may be 
the case). The Auto_* stuff is about wireless networks you have 
registered (the school's wifi at CQURoam and another one you've used 
called cherub7). The wireless ones might be trying to auto-connect in 
sequence and, if out of range, state they fail being not present -- 
someone else will have to confirm that behavior, but it seems likely.

Are you having a network problem, like you can't connect after booting 
up, or you're just seeing ugly-looking messages about network devices 
that aren't connected and wifi points that are out of range?
