I have two wireless networks. I'd like to be able to switch between them. I'm using ndiswrapper on f8 with a Broadcom BCM94311MCG chip.

ifcfg-wlan0 works fine:

cat ifcfg-wlan0
DEVICE=wlan0
BOOTPROTO=dhcp
ONBOOT=yes
TYPE=Wireless
ESSID=net1

So I set up ifcfg-wlan1:

    cat ifcfg-wlan1
DEVICE=wlan0
BOOTPROTO=dhcp
ONBOOT=no
TYPE=Wireless
ESSID=net2

  ifdown wlan0
  ifup wlan1
Determining IP information for wlan0... failed; no link present. Check cable?

Then:

   ifup wlan0
Determining IP information for wlan0... failed; no link present. Check cable?

rmmod, and modprobing ndiswrapper makes ifup wlan0 work again.

I can see both wireless access points with iwlist wlan0 scan.
