I doubt if this has anything to do with Fedora --
it seems to me much more likely to be something to do with your config files.
Did you try running System Settings=>Network Configuration?
(And possibly re-booting afterwards.)

I upgraded from RedHat-9.0 to Fedora-1.0 on a number of computers,
and my ethernet and WiFi LANs all seem to be working as before.
