I have NM working on my laptop but when I boot it does not start

connection working again. The card is madwifi.

What does "chkconfig --list NetworkManager; chkconfig --list network"
output?  I believe you want to see this:

NetworkManager  0:off   1:off   2:on    3:on    4:on    5:on    6:off
network         0:off   1:off   2:off   3:off   4:off   5:off   6:off

This should get a little easier in F9, since NetworkManager should run
by default[1] and the network init script will not.  So the default
should make it much easier for people to follow John's suggestion to
try NM first.

I have both NetworkManager and network autostarting, but the wireless entry in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts is set to ONBOOT=no. Both wireless and eth0 work peachy. I will certainly keep it that way when I upgrade to F9+.

As an aside, the native Fedora driver for my Atheros (Acer Aspire 5570Z) didn't work. I had to blacklist the module and install madwifi from Livna.
