Try adding the "dynamic" parameter to the definitions of the ntp servers
in your /etc/ntp.conf. For example:
server 0.fedora.pool.ntp.org dynamic
server 1.fedora.pool.ntp.org dynamic
server 2.fedora.pool.ntp.org dynamic
In this way the servers will be searched again when the network goes up.
The output of "ntpq -p" will tell you if the connections are working
(wait a minute or two before checking).
Best regards.
