I had an airo for a while, but I swapped it for an Intel. IIRC, the airo
driver is a bit strange in that it creates wifi0 as a shadow device.
There should also be an eth0 or eth1 that corresponds to the card (check
the MAC address in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth*), and that's
the one you want to bring up and down.
