I have updated my desktop using the 64-bit desktop of F9 from F7.
My
wireless is described by:
00:0a.0 Network controller: Intersil Corporation Prism 2.5 Wavelan chipset
(rev 01)
Subsystem: Netgear MA311 802.11b wireless adapter
Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 32, IRQ 18
Memory at e9005000 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=4K]
Capabilities: [dc] Power Management version 2
Kernel driver in use: hostap_pci
Kernel modules: orinoco_pci, hostap_pci
Under F7 the wireless connected without any issues.
Turn off the service network
Turn on the service NetworkManager
run the applet nm-applet to control your wireless logins.
Do not try to make system-config-network work together with NM.
