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.
Jim,
I had considered that, but am reluctant to purposely avoid new kernels
with potential fixes to other problems known and unknown. If support
was removed from the kernel, do you know if it was added in terms of
(a)kmod support? I've not yet seen anything about it.
As a (perhaps) related question:
It is my understanding that if I were to use akmod (as opposed to kmod)
it would dynamically download necessary modules at startup time if an
updated kernel is detected. However, if what is necessary is network
drivers, that would create a sort of chicken-and-egg problem, wouldn't
it? Should I avoid akmod in favor of kmod (for network components) for
this reason?

It also killed Skype !
Had an important skypecon last night, lucky I had a ubuntu install on
another disk.
