using redhat-config-network you can do a 'copy' of the device/setting
for the wireless card (for eg: - if you have eth1 - wireless - it will
create eth1copy0)

Now you can edit this copy - change the name/wireless setings.

In your profiles - you can then select (first field check-box) either
the original or the copy - to be part of the profile (or not use
multiple profiles - and enable the correct device directly from the
default profile)
