[wicd-curses] configure new network

The first time I try to configure a network, I get this traceback:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/share/wicd/curses/wicd-curses.py", line 1134, in call_update_ui
    self.update_ui(True)
  File "/usr/share/wicd/curses/wicd-curses.py", line 94, in wrapper
    return func(*args, **kargs)
  File "/usr/share/wicd/curses/wicd-curses.py", line 1146, in update_ui
    self.handle_keys(input_data[1])
  File "/usr/share/wicd/curses/wicd-curses.py", line 1028, in handle_keys
    self.diag = WirelessSettingsDialog(pos, self.frame)
  File "/usr/share/wicd/curses/netentry_curses.py", line 503, in __init__
    self.set_values()
  File "/usr/share/wicd/curses/netentry_curses.py", line 543, in set_values
    wireless.GetWirelessProperty(networkID, 'bitrate')
ValueError: None is not in list

But, I'm able to connect to a network via wicd-gtk, and once this connection is saved, it can be modified later using wicd-curses.
