I think the options line is the final step that made it work for me. Before that it did not actually create the interface so it could not be activated. alias wlan0 ndiswrapper options ndiswrapper ifname wlan0 Note that the interface name and the alias can be almost anything you want, but the config file in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts must be named appropriately. I use ifcfg-wlan0 since that is the interface name I chose.
