Unless you need ipv6, or need advanced networking features such as bridges, or are setting up a headless system with static networking, NetworkManager is fine for both wireless and wired. NetworkManager can have system wide connections configured that will be brought up at boot time, both dhcp or static. For the OPs laptop case, NM is even better as you can go from one location where you're using wireless to another location, plug in a wire and NetworkManager will automatically attempt to get an address from that wire and allow you to use the wired network. There are very few reasons and less each release to revert to the 'network' service. -- Jesse Keating Fedora -- Freedom² is a feature! identi.ca: http://identi.ca/jkeating
