[SOLVED]Very strange wireless problem on Toshiba laptop with FC4

[Laszlo Antal]

Hi,

Thank you for your tip!!!
It's working!!!!!! I am writing this email on my laptop with wireless
connection!!!YEAHHHHHHH

So the solution(this worked for me) is delete this line "" CHANNEL=11 
""  in /etc/sysconfig/networking/devices/ifcfg-eth1 then run 
/etc/init.d/network reload
then ifconfig eth0 down.
That's it. after all this I just opened up Firefox and everything work 
pretty well.
Thank you again all the help.

Laszlo
