Hi,
What did you have to do to get NetworkManager to play please? I have a similar problem where FC9 and FC10 can't associate with a Belkin Access Point using WPA on my IWL4965 or my Zydas USB stick. This is starting to look like a Belkin problem as I've seen references to similar behaviour in other distros and a number of them mention Belkin APs. Someone did comment that whether it works with Linux depends on which channel it's on.
This is one of those times where I don't know how to call it. Do I blame the AP as the same settings work fine on my 3Com in my office or do I play the pragmatic card and say "well it works fine on Windows and my BlackBerry so the behaviour and work too"?
Cheers,
Paul.

Yes, SELinux seems to be on steroids in F10. I'm using permissive to try
and fix it but it is proving difficult. I have to say Ubuntu wins hands
down on the wireless front. I had to manually download and extract the
FW for my broadcom chip, plus NetworkManager wouldn't work, so updated
the config.
