I'll figure that out later. I found a USB key in my camera bag (I'm out
of town, but took my desktop with me) and used the updated src.rpm from
elrepo for my wireless. So it connects now.

I need to get an Intel wireless nic with drivers in the kernel, that's
what my thinkpad has and it always just works.

I'll figure out what's up with the wired connections later.
