Wireless Network Connection

I have a real interesting problem. Note this worked great before I had to 
reformat/reinstall. I have a Netgear Wireless G PC Card for my laptop. I 
have the madwifi driver compiled and installed. I put this in my 
/etc/rc.d/rc.local file:

iwconfig ath0 essid Qf734EdTu8W
iwpriv ath0 mode 3
iwconfig ath0 key 684D083EECE11F6DC18D187749
iwconfig ath0 192.168.1.13 <http://192.168.1.13>
255.255.255.0<http://255.255.255.0>
route add default gw 192.168.1.1 <http://192.168.1.1>

However, when I boot into Fedora, it doesn't connect unless I take out the 
PC Card, put it back in, and then give it the essid and iwpriv commands 
again. It then connects. Anyone have any ideas? I thought perhaps I'm 
missing something in my custom kernel (2.6.13) I made. But I have all 
modules for PC Card support and such.
