nfs mounts fail at boot time

I have FC1 running on my Gateway M500 laptop which uses
wireless DHCP hookup to my home network.  The networking
comes up at boot time.  I have NFS mounts (e.g., for /home/maint) 
listed in my /etc/fstab file.  At boot time, the NFS mounts always
fail.  After boot, I can mount these easily using
"mount /home/maint".  It seems to me that maybe the boot
is not providing enough time for the network to get established.
Any help in getting this to work would be appreciated. -- Matt

Here are some lines from my boot.log file:
