Fedora 9 uses NetworkManager by default. While this has greatly improved networking for users with wireless and less common devices (mobile broadband, GSM, etc.) it may still have problems with some configurations. NetworkManager is still under constant development.
NOTE: The following steps do NOT apply to all users. NetworkManager is highly recommended for Laptop users, especially using wireless with security.
Startup Applications Requiring Network
Some applications require the network to be initialized during boot. If you are using NetworkManager and having these problems, edit /etc/sysconfig/network as 'root' and add the following line:
NETWORKWAIT=1. Or run:
[mirandam@charon ~]$ sudo su -c 'echo NETWORKWAIT=1 >> /etc/sysconfig/network'
NetworkManager on Fixed Networks
On machines with a fixed networking device and a fixed IP address (e.g. desktop, server, appliance), it might be easier to disable NetworkManager and use the older network service. Note that the Fedora 9 installer disables the network service by default. To switch to using the network service:
First disable NetworkManager and prevent it from automatically loading:
[mirandam@charon ~]$ sudo /sbin/chkconfig --level 35 NetworkManager off
Next, configure your network settings:
[mirandam@charon ~]$ sudo system-config-network
You should have an eth0 device already showing. To configure the IP settings click on Edit. Do not forget to set DNS on the DNS tab (if you're using fixed IP's). Make sure the eth0 is selected as Active. Then File > Save and quit.
Next, enable the service and make sure it loads at next boot:
[mirandam@charon ~]$ sudo /etc/init.d/network start
Bringing up loopback interface: [ OK ]
Bringing up interface eth0: [ OK ]
[mirandam@charon ~]$ sudo /sbin/chkconfig --level 35 network on
While it may be possible to re-activate your network without a reboot, it may be recommended to reboot.

以上是在GNOME桌面下。
到了KDE桌面，又有新问题了，当步骤到 $ sudo /sbin/chkconfig --level 35 NetworkManager off
提示文件不存在。彻底晕了。
烦请兄弟姐妹们救急。
等待ing。
