This means you have not configured your network.
But how could you when the kernl has not detected
your wifi card?
As I had indicated before, kernel 2.6.35 is the first kernel
that started supporting the Ralink rt28xxx chipset.
What kernel version are you running? Have you done yum update since you
installed F14?

Also, the BSSID in the wpa_supplicant.conf file
has nothing to do with connecting to wifi hot spots.
I connect to wifi hot spots via the firefox web browser.
