I have had similar problems with FC3, I am assuimg you are having the
same problem as me, I just downloaded the latest firmware and drivers
from the the ipw2200 website, and compile the drivers into the kernel.

but the only configured eth device is the ethernet (eth0).
if i try to create a new wireless connection, it doesn't give me the
possibility to setup the ipw2200 device.
i can use the ipw2200 device to configure an ethernet connection, but
when i activate it, it says that the device doen't exists.
i have tried already to install the driver version 1.0.4, but after
that the device is not recognized at all.
it is impossible to run iwconfig on the eth1 (ipw2200) device.
any suggestions?
thanks in advance
