Are you using a pcmcia wireless network card?

I thought this was fixed in FC3 (seems like it was reported as such on
this list last week.)

If you are using a pcmcia card try telling the system NOT to start it at
boot time.  When pcmcia services startup the card will start
automagically anyways.  Under FC2 this seems to work every time.
