I think I read somewhere that FC4's network scripts have a bit of
trouble handling wlan0. However, you can tell ndiswrapper to use a
different device name. So it is possible to let ndiswrapper call the new
device eth1 instead of wlan0. To make this happen stick this line
in /etc/modprobe.conf:

options ndiswrapper if_name=eth1

Hope this helps.
