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.

I agree with you, I believe it is the drivers too. I assumed it was the
network manager because I am able to connect to my 2.4ghz wi-fi. Aren't
the same drivers used to connect to 2.4ghz the drivers to connect to 5ghz.
