It is not in an usable state when this happens. If I just reboot, the card is then correctly shown as eth1 and works ok.

First I assume you installed the  ipw2200-firmware rpm. You are not
trying to run network and NetworkManager at the same time. That produced
bad karma. I would suggest you stop network and just run NetworkManager
and NetworkDispatcher in the /etc/init.d directory.

Then configure your wireless using the nm-applet which should start up
automatically at boot. An icon will appear in the right side of the
upper panel. Right click on it to choose your access point and configure
it. You should unconfigure your wireless setup if you used s-c-n or
iwconfig to configure it.
