My wife's laptop was running fine on kernel 3.10.11-200:

I neither had nor needed any additional kernel modules. However, when I
upgraded kernels:
uname -a:
Linux croweflies.the-leveys.us 3.11.2-201.fc19.x86_64 #1 SMP Fri Sep 27
19:20:55 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

rfkill list wlan:

Now I've got "asus-wlan" while my original one is listed as "hard
blocked." The problem is that the "asus-wlan" doesn's show as an
available interface, and I cannot connect. Any suggestions?

The new kernel has most liklely discontinued you wireless driver.
Restart your laptop and "down arrow" to the previous kernel-3.10.11-200
and boot up on that.
If you get the wireless working again, do a yum remove
kernel-3.11.2-201.fc19.x86_64
Then do a yum install yum-plugin-versionlock.
Then get into your SU filemanager and go to
/etc/yum/pluginconf.d/versionlock.list file and open.
Then do a rpm -qa | grep kernel and copy and paste every kernel package
related to kernel-3.10.11-200
into the /etc/yum/pluginconf.d/versionlock.list file and do a Save on file.
In doing this yum will never update any kernel above kernel-3.10.11-200
and you should never have any more wireless
problems until you upgrade to the next version of Fedora.
