Well my laptop has a Broadcom BCM5751 Ethernet controller and a IPW2200
and I have not had this problem. However I have upgrades to
2.6.22.1-41.fc7 kernel. But I did not have problem with previous kernels
either. In any case I would update your kernel and alte ar
/etc//etc/yum/pluginconf.d/installonlyn.conf  tokeep parameter so your
old kernel will be kept.
