Lawrence,
If you replaced the card and then it worked I'm not sure how you can then report that
the problem was not the card. Not only did
you replace the card but then you also installed Fedora 18, thereby eliminating any
chance at that time of knowing if your problem
was hardware or software related. Have you tried reinstalling F19 Beta TC2 with the
"working" card? Did it work/not work if you
did? I'm not saying that it's not NM that's the problem but you need to
debug things one step at a time to determine that.

It may not be the card, but the driver. For some reason, I commonly have wifi problems
with new Fedora releases, particularly on a Toshiba laptop I use -- I don't have the
machine here and can't remember the NIC, but I think it uses a realtek driver of some
sort. I make a report to bugzilla, and it sits there for a couple of months. Eventually
I'll get an email saying "we upgraded the kernel -- did that fix it?" and
it did. I tend to run Mint in the meantime.
