I too have been fighting with this this afternoon. Two things i did which seemed to kick it into life in system-config-network were firstly to probe for the MAC address - I don't know why, but s-c-n always gets the MAC address wrong until you tell it to probe it (which plays havoc when you have mac address access limiting on your AP), and also I set the wireless device to be in "Auto" mode rather than "Master". Again, no idea why s-c-n defaulted to Master.
I'm not using NetworkManager (yet). Changed it to managed and used my wifi network configuration. Didn't work either.
